IHC declares Dr. A.Q Khan a free citizen

He was , he is and he will, ever remail Pakistan National Hero no matter what the West BS about him.He played a major role in making Pakistan Defence unbeatable.If we are sitting here after Mumbai attacks without India attacking us, its because of him. In Kargil in 1999 , in 2001 Indian Parliment Attack and in 1987 India attacking Hyderabad near Rajhistan border .Every time only one thing saved us , our strategic weapon.

Due to security reasons, Dr. Khan should inform government about his movement in advance.

The verdict has directed the government to provide security to Dr. Khan on immediate basis. **VVIP security **would be given to him.

^^ GEO/ARY/Express/Aaj/Samah are showing live coverage of his house ,waving his hands,his wife, crowd of people holding bouquets.An hour ago Sen.Khurshid of JAmata-i-Islami who is his college friend came to greet him.He said that he would not file a case against Dicatator as he even not come onto the road without security which is infact his punishment.He further added that he will contibute to Pakistan science institutions and welfare organizations.

Very Good Decision. He is indeed the greatest National Hero. When Musharraf arrested him I made this video in honor of our great scientist.

Bcoz he is nothing.
He has no role to play, in the nuclear tests.
It was Dr. Mubarak & Co (the Atomic Energy Commission).
Khan shamelessly recieves credit for a lot of things.

Lets make the record straight, because no one is emphasizing it:

Indeed a good decision by** PPP Government !****

Some excerpts from article:**
Pakistan Lifts Restrictions on Nuclear Scientist(NY TIMES)

HuH!! Is it your opinion or you have any valid resource for that? And again, my emphasis is on "Valid"

Re: IHC declares Dr. A.Q Khan a free citizen

About time. Justice for someone at least.

Because PMLN and its government do not accept present Judges they should (would) not release AQ. Let PMLN and its government in punjab prove the world that they are not going to do the cherry Picking.

Dr. Khan was a an escape goat...

Re: IHC declares Dr. A.Q Khan a free citizen

He is and will always be a hero of Pakistan. Hats off to him! Haters can hate him all they want but his does not changes the fact that he as a leader plus many other scientist made Pakistan defense strong.

no, its not my opinion. Its a fact.

Robert is right, Dr. Khan was just one of the scientist in the chain.. 1000s of scientist and engineers were involved in the project. Dr. Khans role was equally important as the others.

Actually thats not what I meant.
here is the fact

Nuclear tests were conducted by Atomic Energy, headed by Dr. Samar back then. Dr. Qadeer holds no position in the organization, none at all. He separated himself from Atamic energy in late 70's and started his own AQ labs.

So if AQ Khan hadn't started work on it you are saying Dr Mubarak would've done it anyway (without the technology he brought from Holland)?

no your argument is like giving credit for to IBM for developing windows (microsoft should be given credit).

or to the person who invented the wheel.

credit goes to the organization who did the job. period.

AQ lab has been involved in enriching uranium. not much to do with the technology involved in the above tests.

Its like giving credit to the sports goods shop who built the bat, that Inzimam used to make his triple hundred.

Re: IHC declares Dr. A.Q Khan a free citizen

O Bhai Sahab , Nuclear Weapon most important stage is enrichement of Uranium to 99% pure state and Dr.Khan was the man who did it with technology he accquired at Holland .He then shifted this enriched uranium to Atomic Energy Commission in solid rods form who used it in weapon.All scientists played thier part but this technology which cost about 10 billion dollars was done by Dr.Khan in only few millions and in just 5 years.

Look, Iran is testing missiles and now in space tech. also but from 1991 to this day, they would not be able to make this Nuke.Its not child play to enrich uranium to bomb graded level

Seems like a "consipracy theory" that the last dictator tried to invoke and prevail after shutting down A.Q Khan...
Its strange people still fall for that..

Re: IHC declares Dr. A.Q Khan a free citizen

Dr.Samar is equally respectable .He is with Atomic Commission from 1962 went to Oxford for his PhD and returned in 1966.He is the chief organizer of making nuke in action.All tunnels, planting and design was done by him and his division at PAEC but Dr.Khan enriching uranium made it so.Dr.Samar also played leading role in missile tech and considered as Father of Pakistan Missile Program.
