Three policemen and a civilian were wounded by the explosion. They were taken to a nearby hospital, where a policeman succumbed to his injuries, officials said.

The attackers managed to escape.

Law enforcement personnel cordoned off the area and launched a search operation.

No group claimed responsibility for the attack though such bombings are usually blamed on Baloch nationalist groups.
