The FIR said the police were alerted that a blast had occurred near Sherabad where an “official vehicle with very, very important personnel (VVIP) was en route to Malam Jabba”. It added that when the police reached the spot, a blast occurred on the left side of the road, impacting the official vehicle carrying the personnel.
