June 29: Pakistan’s nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan has said that he is
waiting for the right time to "expose" President Pervez Musharraf.
"I am waiting for the right time. I will reveal things about President
Musharraf. I will expose him," Dr Khan told this newspaper by telephone from his
Islamabad residence. "Right now a case regarding my detention is pending in the
court and I don’t want people to speculate about my anti-Musharraf
statements," he said. About a report that American legislators wanted access to
him, Dr Khan said that no "foreign element" has the right to question him.
The Pakistan government has already rejected the American legislators’
demand, saying that it alone can probe into allegations of nuclear proliferation
against Dr Khan.
"I have said several times that I confessed nuclear export thing (in 2004) just
to save Pakistan. I have never done what I said," added Dr Khan.
Meanwhile, President Pervez Musharraf has reiterated that he will not resign
and will continue to play his role in the stabilisation of democratic process,
security and development of the country. Talking to Sindh governor Ishratul Ibad
here on Saturday night, Mr Musharraf voiced concern over the ongoing power
crisis in the country, fragility of the economy and deteriorating law and order.
He said the government should focus on addressing economic woes of the common
man besides improving law and order and forging political harmony and underlined
the need of political harmony in country.
