ISLAMABAD, Sept 25: India’s efforts to build an atomic bomb in the 1990s could have benefited from a black market nuclear network run by Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, President Pervez Musharraf wrote in his autobiography.
The president asserted that several Indians were involved in Dr Khan’s Dubai-based network, and some of them had since vanished.
He said Dr Khan was running his network through two offices, one in Pakistan and the other in Dubai.
“There is a strong probability that the Indian uranium enrichment programme may also have its roots in the Dubai-based network and could be a copy of the Pakistani centrifuge design,” he wrote.—Reuters
