Pakistan rejects scientist claim

Pakistan has dismissed a magazine article that said the US was probing whether disgraced scientist AQ Khan sold nuclear secrets to Arab nations.

Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said Time magazine's claims were "distorted" and "baseless".

The magazine quoted Pakistani defence sources as saying the US was probing sales to Saudi Arabia and others.

Pakistan pardoned Dr Khan after he admitted illegally transferring nuclear secrets to Iran, Libya and North Korea.

The US has given questions to Pakistan to ask Dr Khan but has not been allowed to interrogate him.

:wtf:
