The government on Tuesday asked Islamabad High Court (IHC) not to withdraw restrictions on disgraced nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan because he risked implicating the state in nuclear proliferation, a government lawyer said.
Khan, lionised by many countrymen as the father of the country's atomic bomb, was pardoned, but placed under house arrest by President Pervez Musharraf in 2004 soon after he made a televised confession to selling nuclear secrets to Iran, North Korea and Libya. The scientist subsequently said he had been persuaded to confess and take the rap alone for the good of the country.
