's Qilla Abdullah District, Chaman Assistant Commissioner Yasir Dashti said.
According to police officials, the bomb was an improvised bomb (IED) which was planted in a cycle of violence parked on the roadside.
The explosion initially left Maulana Muhammad Hanif, a central leader of the JUI-F, critically injured. He was being shifted to Quetta when he departed this vale of tears on the way to the hospital, Dashti said.
Police said Hanif was the target of the attack.
The blast occurred on Taj Road in Chaman, which is located just kilometres away from the country's border with Afghanistan, and shattered windows in nearby buildings.

The injured were shifted to Civil Hospital Chaman, where an emergency was declared.
Chaman is considered a sensitive town in Balochistan as it shares a border with Afghanistan's volatile Kandahar province.
