Deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan. Had known him personally since 1982.

Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, the interior minister added, had assisted him a lot in educational endeavors and remained a visionary leader during difficult times in Pakistan.
“He is the Mohsin e Pakistan,” Rasheed remarked.
Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan is hailed as a hero in Pakistan for developing the Muslim world’s first atomic weapon.
