Khan must be questioned over nuclear blueprints: ex-inspector :

WASHINGTON (AFP) — A former arms inspector said on Monday the United States and the UN atomic watchdog must be allowed to question Pakistani scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan to learn if he sold blueprints for an advanced nuclear weapon to Iran or North Korea.
Khan, the father of Pakistan's atomic bomb who was placed under house arrest for overseeing a network that sold nuclear weapons' secrets and equipment, is suspected of spreading plans for an advanced nuclear warhead in a new report by former UN arms inspector David Albright.
After details of the report appeared in US newspapers, Albright said in a television interview there was a danger that Khan might be released without having to answer questions about the sensitive blueprints, which show how to build a warhead compact enough to fit on a ballistic missile.
"Khan may be released from house arrest. And we may never get to the bottom of this," Albright told CNN television.
