The bombing struck near a Shiite residential area, according to senior police chief Abdur Razzaq Cheema.
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which took place in Quetta's Hazarganji neighbourhood, but Sunni militants have claimed similar bombings in the past against Shiites, whom they view as apostates deserving of death. Local TV footage showed several damaged shops and at least one paramilitary vehicle. A wounded man told reporters from his hospital bed how he had heard a loud explosion before he was struck down.
"Once again our people were the target and once again we will have to bury our dear ones," he said. "We demand more security from the government and all those involved in today's act of terrorism should be found and punished."
