The Secrets of Dr Khan is based on an exclusive 1998 interview with the Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan, often called the father of Pakistan's Nuclear Program. Pakistan is believed to have spent $5 billion on its nuclear weapons program, which it launched shortly after the 1971 war with India. Also included are followup interviews with the former CIA head of station in Pakistan and the German and Dutch scientists who were secretly involved in selling components of the the bomb to Pakistan.

Dr. Khan is currently accused of masterminding the world's most successful nuclear black market. Pakistan acknowledged recently that Khan sold high-tech secrets to Iran, Libya, and North Korea. Khan's supporters insist that he and six other detained nuclear officials have been made scapegoats to cover up government involvement in the nuclear leaks.
