Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, the 'father' of Pakistan's atomic bomb, was given a state funeral in Islamabad, which both PM Imran Khan and President Alvi gave a miss.

Abdul Qadeer Khan was awarded Pakistan’s highest civilian honour Nishan-i-Imtiaz twice, but was also accused of selling nuclear secrets to North Korea, Iran and Libya.
Geo News reported that Khan was brought to the hospital Sunday morning after he faced breathing difficulties. Defence Minister Pervez Khattak referred to his death as a 'great loss'.
