 ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - The father of Pakistan's nuclear program, who confessed to running a clandestine nuclear black market, was released from a hospital after tests on his heart, an army spokesman said Saturday.
Abdul Qadeer Khan was taken to a hospital in Rawalpindi, a garrison city near the capital Islamabad, on Thursday to undergo an angiogram, a procedure to check coronary arteries for blockages, Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan said.
"He has been cleared. He didn't suffer any heart attack," Sultan told The Associated Press, adding that Khan returned home late Friday. "His condition is satisfactory."
