| The Khan Research Laboratory (KRL) Hospital administration on Friday didn’t allow Qazi Hussain Ahmed, chief of the Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), to meet detained nuclear scientist Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan. The hospital is named after the nuclear scientist. Later, Qazi told reporters that Dr Qadeer should be appointed as president of Pakistan in light of his services to the nation. “It is the consensus decision of the nation that Dr Qadeer should be appointed as president of Pakistan,” Qazi said. He also urged the leadership of the winning parties to visit the nuclear scientist and learn how he was doing. Qazi condemned the detention of Dr Qadeer, adding that he used to receive messages from the scientist in the past but now they had been stopped. He said the whole nation was concerned about the health of Dr Qadeer. Earlier, Qazi Hussain Ahmed addressed protesters outside Faisal Mosque, and condemned Israeli atrocities against the Palestinians. |
