Jamshedpur, Dec 9: The gunshot-injured Mobile Tiger (cop-on-bike) Ramdev Mahto who was undergoing treatment at the Tata Main Hospital succumbed to his injury late on Friday evening.
Ramdev Mahto (34) who was a resident of West Singhbhum had sustained a bullet injury in the chest.
It may be mentioned here that two bike-borne criminals had launched a gun-shot attack on a 40-year-old land broker Mohammed Sajjad at Jawaharnagar in Mango on Friday forenoon, causing him to die on the spot.
As the Mobile Tigers, Ramdev Mahto and his companion Nirmal Tuddu were somewhere around the crime scene, they chased the fleeing criminals.

Ramdev and Nirmal had overpowered the two assailants, but the latter managed to escape having shot at the cop. But Nirmal Tuddu did not give in and resumed the chase and finally succeeded to nab one of the assailants.
The criminal in the police net was identified as Sanjay Sarkar, a resident of Saraikela.
In the meantime, the local residents rushed both Sajjad and Ramdev to Tata Main Hospital, where Sajjad who was a land broker was declared as brought dead. Ramdev succumbed to his injury late in the evening.
Land broker had a criminal record
According to police, the shooting was suspected to have been conspired by the notorious Chowda Raju gang of Mango and rivalry in land brokery was the reason behind the gun-shot attack.
Moreover, Sajjad had also a criminal record. He had allegedly launched a gunshot attack on a businessman, Ganesh Singh at the Circuit House area in Bistupur two years ago and had returned from jail recently after he was arrested in connection with that case.
Police are, however, trying to arrest the remaining culprits involved in the murder of Mohammed Sajjad.
