Attaullah Khogyani, the governor’s spokesman, told Pajhwok Afghan News the bombing took place in the Karuko area of the district at around 10am.
He told the Afghanistan-based news agency that the pick-up vehicle the district’s administrative chief Hamisha Gul and police head Nawab were traveling in struck the roadside bomb.
The injured people were shifted to hospital for treatment.
