Hum Ahh Bhi Barte Hain, Ho Jate hain Badnaam

"In 2000 a there was a gentleman - a US scientist - who passed information to China. He was caught and charged on 60 counts but no punishment was was given to him. You have to realise these are sensitive issues and there are national sensitivities.

"On one side we have proliferated - yes, I know that - but on the [other] side Khan is a hero to the man in the street. The world recognises it ... the United States recognises it." To charges that his Government refused to make Khan available for interrogation by US investigators, Musharraf counters, "No US official has ever asked me more than we have done."
