ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s top court has given the country’s prime minister three more weeks to decide whether to obey its order to reopen an old corruption case against the president. Monday’s decision was seen as a rare conciliatory gesture by the supreme court towards the government after months of conflict over the issue.

agreed to adjourn the case until

September 18.
