With the help of the hint, we can understand that there are two sentences in the above-given statement that are being said or narrated by the same person.
In the first sentence: The speaker ‘X’ is asking ‘Y’, why the police suspected him.

b)Reason- As stated in the first sentence, ‘X’ is asking ‘Y’ the reason for the police to suspect him.
