Thank you! Sorry for the trouble. I did not create a new thread because I knew I was being blind to a very trivial question. I forgot to mention I had already tried sudo but it wouldn't suspend even so. The problem was I do not normally use sudo and I was stupid enough to insert it directly to obmenu without testing it on shell priorly. NOPASSWD was indeed what I missed.

One way would be sudo with the NOPASSWD option.
