A defence lawyer in Pakistan says a former finance minister has been granted a week's bail in a corruption case involving natural gas imports.

The development will delay the expected detention of ex-minister Miftah Ismail who is sought by the National Accountability Bureau.

Nihal Hashmi says the High Court in Sindh province granted Ismail bail on Friday.
