A MAN awaiting deportation to Papua New Guinea has died after plummeting from the fifth floor of a Sydney hospital where he was being treated for attempted self-harm.
Police spent more than 12 hours trying to negotiate with the 33-year-old who they say was trying to throw himself out of the window at Liverpool Hospital.
A spokesman said he was in Australia illegally and was being detained at Sydney's Villawood Detention centre where he attempted self harm.
Officers first arrived at the scene around 9.40am (AEST) on Saturday but he fell from a ledge outside the window at around 11.30pm (AEST) and was pronounced dead at the scene.
A critical incident team is investigating and will be overseen by the Professional Standards Command.
An immigration department spokeswoman later said the man had been awaiting deportation.
