Army looking into detained officials' assets
ISLAMABAD, Feb 4: The army is looking into the assets of senior KRL officials who are under protective custody of an intelligence agency for 'debriefing', a source told Dawn on Wednesday.
The source said that army's audit department had been told to audit the assets to find out if these scientists had made any personal gains by transferring nuclear technology to other states.
He claimed the government had made a plan about 'reorganization' of the KRL and its departments.
The family members of detained scientists rejected the allegation that they had made any illegal assets.
"The government can check our bank accounts and investigate the property these officials have made," they said.
The former director-general of KRL's science and technology department, Dr Nazir, told his family members that he had done nothing wrong during his 25-year service, his son Mohammad Usman told Dawn.
During a meeting arranged by the ISI on Eid, Dr Nazir told his family that he had worked hard for the sake of the country but now he was being treated as a convict.
