They suspected them to be Maoists and chased them. The three men were caught and beaten with iron rods and sticks. One of them died on the spot while two were critically injured," a police official said. The two injured, who have been admitted to the Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital in Jamshedpur, told police that they were not Maoists and were returning to their village near Gumadi village.
