It may be recalled that Mohsin-e-Pakistan Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, who was ill from some time, passed away this morning at the age of 85. He has been buried in H8 Cemetery, Islamabad.
Abdul Qadeer Khan was considered the father of Pakistan’s nuclear program and is revered at home as a hero for building the Muslim world’s first atomic bomb.
Dr Khan’s health started to deteriorate last night, after which he was brought to hospital in the morning. Doctors tried their best to save the scientist’s life, however, were unable to do so and he passed away.
