        <h2>Father Of Pakistan's Atomic Weapons Program</h2>
        <p>
          <b>Abdul Qadeer Khan</b>, known as A. Q. Khan, was a Pakistani nuclear physicist and metallurgical engineer
          who is colloquially known as the "father of Pakistan's atomic weapons program".

          An émigré (Muhajir) from India who migrated to Pakistan in 1952, Khan was educated in the metallurgical
          engineering departments of Western European technical universities where he pioneered studies in phase
          transitions of metallic alloys, uranium metallurgy, and isotope separation based on gas centrifuges. After
          learning of India's "Smiling Buddha" nuclear test in 1974, Khan joined his nation's clandestine efforts to
          develop atomic weapons when he founded the Khan Research Laboratories (KRL) in 1976 and was both its chief
          scientist and director for many years.

          In January 2004, Khan was subjected to a debriefing by the Musharraf administration over evidence of nuclear
          proliferation handed to them by the Bush administration of the United States. Khan admitted his role in
          running a nuclear proliferation network, only to retract his statements in later years when he leveled
          accusations at the former administration of Pakistan's Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in 1990, and also
          directed allegations at President Musharraf over the controversy in 2008.

          Khan was accused of selling nuclear secrets illegally and was put under house arrest in 2004. After years of
          house arrest, Khan successfully filed a lawsuit against the Federal Government of Pakistan at the Islamabad
          High Court whose verdict declared his debriefing unconstitutional and freed him on 6 February 2009.

          After his death on 10 October 2021, he was given a state funeral at Faisal Mosque before being buried at the
          H-8 graveyard in Islamabad.
