The statement further added that four Taliban insurgents riding a motor bomb were on their way to reach their target when the explosives went off.
The blast took place on Sunday evening in the vicinity of Dand Jal village in Anar Dara district, according to MoI.
The anti-government armed militant groups including the Taliban insurgents have not commented regarding the report so far.
In the meantime, the ministry of interior says the blast not inflicted casualties to anyone else including the local residents or security personnel.
