| Re: Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan Talks To GEO TV Here is the script as they issued with name of Dr. AQ Khan Pakistan gave centrifuges to North Korea in a 2000 shipment supervised by the army during the rule of President Pervez Musharraf, nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan said Friday. Khan told The Associated Press in a telephone interview that the uranium enrichment equipment was sent from Pakistan in a North Korean plane that was loaded under the supervision of Pakistani security officials. His claims contradict his 2004 confession that he was solely responsible for spreading nuclear technology to Iran, North Korea and Libya - and Pakistan's repeated denials its army or government knew about Khan's nuclear proliferation activities. Khan said the army had "complete knowledge" of the shipment of used P-1 centrifuges to North Korea and that it must have been sent with the consent of Musharraf, the then-army chief who took power in a 1999 coup. "It was a North Korean plane, and the army had complete knowledge about it and the equipment," Khan said. "It must have gone with his (Musharraf's) consent." Khan's allegations could prove deeply embarrassing for both the army and Musharraf, a key ally in the U.S.-led war on terror. Army and Foreign Ministry spokesmen declined immediate comment Friday. Musharraf's spokesman said he would respond to Khan's allegations after speaking to the president. Khan is regarded as a hero by many in Pakistan for his key role in the program that gave it the Islamic world's first nuclear bomb in 1998, seen as a deterrent against historic archrival India. After his 2004 confession and televised statement of contrition, Khan was pardoned by Musharraf but has been kept under virtual house arrest at his spacious villa in Islamabad. Since a new civilian government took power after February elections, eclipsing Musharraf, the retired scientist has increasingly spoken out in the media. Asked why he had taken sole responsibility for the nuclear proliferation, Khan said he had been persuaded that it was in the national interest by friends including a key figure in the ruling party at the time. Khan said that in return he had been promised complete freedom, but "those promises were not honored." Khan also said that he had traveled to North Korea in 1999 with a Pakistan army general to buy shoulder-launched missiles from Pyonyang. Khan's wife this week petitioned the Islamabad High Court for an end to the restrictions on her husband's movements and for his freedom to speak to the media. Also Friday, a lawyer for Khan alleged that listening devices had been planted in the scientist's tightly guarded home. |

| Re: Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan Talks To GEO TV why the GEO Anchorperson wants him to repeat what he is saying again and again. I think GEO creates more panic than any other channel. If you watch this channel just for one day, you will feel that pata nahi kiya ho giya hai pakistan mein. Overall I agree with that Dr. Qadeer said that how he alone can do something like this. This army men are after money and definitely they are equally responsible. |
