Earlier reports had described the kaboom as a cylinder blast, but District Coordination Officer (DCO) Salim Zahid Gondal said that it had been a bombing.

The injured have been transferred to hospital.

Police have cordoned off the area and launched an investigation into the blast. No group has yet grabbed credit for the attack.
