On March 28, 2006, the government of Pakistan announced the appointment of Anwar Ali as the chairman of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC). Ali is the most senior scientist at the organization, where he has served for 39 years. During that time, he played a central role in the creation of Pakistans nuclear weapons and solid-fueled missile programs - and allegedly participated in at least one smuggling operation to obtain specialized equipment for Pakistans uranium enrichment program. A physicist by training, Ali has had career assignments which include working at the Khan Research Laboratories (KRL), where he served as one of the directors and carried out work, according to the Associated Press of Pakistan, having "fundamental significance" - a euphemism for working on nuclear weapons at the facility.
