He died in the ambulance.
He was on police remand and had a mandatory health check-up at the community health centre at Chainpur, where his health parameters were normal from chest to pulse before going into the judicial remand again after his police remand got over that is before lodging again in the central jail Daltonganj here on Sunday.
His condition worsened before he could be taken into the central jail after the police remand as without any loss of time, he was rushed first to the MMCH Daltonganj on Sunday from the premise of the central prison on complaints about severe breathlessness.
The murder accused spoke to the MMCH doctor about his breathing discomfort only and no other physical problem. He only complained about a lack of oxygen.

His SpO2 was within 50 when it ought to have been 90 plus. His BP was high. He was in the MMCH Daltonganj on Sunday between 3 and 4 pm where his SpO2 and BP were dangerously low and high, respectively.
His SpO2 was stabilised, taking it to 75-80. He was referred to the higher centre in Ranchi. An ambulance got off for Ranchi, where at Kuru, he had a short about of breath and died.
Here it is to be found out if his life support system in the ambulance failed him or life support system in the ambulance just malfunctioned like a short supply of medical oxygen, or if anything went wrong with the life support system in the ambulance leading to the death of this murder accused.
Palamu has a history of oxygen cylinders in the ambulance going dry en route to the higher centre, leaving the patient to fend for himself. Was such a repeat of failure or malfunctioning of the life support system in the ambulance occurred in this case? The patient, who talked with extreme distress about his breathlessness as the only complaint, with no sign of anybody or organ harm, died in the ambulance.
