"During the course of questioning, the suspect went to attend nature's call. While in the washroom, he attempted to take his life by slitting his throat," he said.

The spokesperson added that Hajam was given immediate medical attention and rushed to a hospital in critical condition.

"Necessary legal actions have been initiated," he said.
