| Description | Although it beggars belief that one man alone could have been responsible, Dr A. Q. Khan admitted to leaking nuclear secrets to North Korea, Libya and Iran – despite earlier reports claiming it had been with the knowledge and approval of senior military officials. Following his confession on a live broadcast on 3 February, Khan apologized to the nation and was swiftly pardoned by President Musharraf who later added that there would be no independent inquiry into the case. |
