Documents obtained by Fox News suggest that for decades Pakistan spread nuclear weapon technology around the globe in exchange for cash, political influence and help with its own atomic bomb programme.
Among those on the other side of the deals: China, Iran, North Korea and Libya. According to Fox News, the charges are contained in two documents written by AQ Khan – a 13-page confession to government authorities and a dramatic letter hastily written to his wife as an international manhunt tightened around him.
In a Fox News exclusive, never-before-seen Khan photographs and documents will be featured in an upcoming special, “Fox News Reporting: Iran’s Nuclear Secrets”, airing September 18 at 9pm ET. The documents include the confession, the letter to his wife, and a Pakistani intelligence service report on Khan. The exclusive photographs show the Khans in a variety of intimate settings, including under house arrest.
Fox News is also releasing the documents and photographs over the Internet. The documents obtained by Fox News are Khan’s version of events. Fox obtained the documents from Simon Henderson, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. While some of the contents of Khan’s documents have been reported by news organisations, they have never been released to the public.
