Hi Chandan,
have a look here, it should help you.
http://www.activiti.org/userguide/#_rest_support

You can create a custom REST endpoint and then you can do what you need by invoking the specific services.

"like SuspendProcessInstancebyID(ID) -> I need to implement our own logic of executing this method, is it possible ?"

You can replace the existing services and plug in your own implementation easily.
