Pakistan's 'Nuke Father' Not to Be Under US Probe

Pakistani government said on Monday that Abdullah Q. Khan, the founder of the nation's nuclear program, will not be interrogated by concerned agencies from the United States.  

The Foreign Office spokesman Masood Khan told a weekly press conference in Islamabad that the Pakistani authorities have the ability to handle the nuclear proliferation control.

 

Earlier this month media reported that certain US officials suggested that "the nuke father," who was involved in an illegal transfer of nuclear know-how to Iran, should be interrogated by the US authority.

 

The spokesman said Pakistan has been cooperating well with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on the nuclear proliferation control and there is no need to bring in the US aid in the sector.

 

A number of Pakistani scientists and officials had been detained for the proliferation scandal since Abdullah Q. Khan confessed for his wrong doing earlier this year.
