Correct option is A
The correct answer is: (a) Judge Tomoko Akane
As of 11 March 2024, Judge Tomoko Akane of Japan has been serving as the President of the International Criminal Court (ICC). Her term runs until 2027.
She succeeded Judge Piotr Hofmański, who served from 2021 to 10 March 2024 .
The ICC Presidency consists of the President and two Vice‑Presidents, all elected by their fellow judges for three-year terms, renewable once.
Judge Tomoko Akane is the 6th President of the ICC.
Prior to her presidency, she served as an ICC judge since March 2018.
Her responsibilities include overseeing the administration of the Court, representing the ICC in external relations, and managing the work of the judicial divisions.
Judge Karim A.A. Khan is the Prosecutor of the ICC, not the President.
Judge Silvia Fernández de Gurmendi served as President from 2015 to 2018, and as President of the Assembly of States Parties later—but not at present.
Judge Piotr Hofmański was President from 2021 to 2024, and his term ended just before Akane took office.
