Even as a special team of interrogators made their way to the city to question the suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, Mayor Thomas M. Menino of Boston suggested that the suspect’s injuries were such that he might not be able to communicate for some time.
“We don’t know if we will ever be able to question the individual,” he said in an interview with ABC News.

According to officials now-

They believe he "attempted to kill himself"- possibly shooting himself in the throat.
To top it off, the concept that "they may never be able to communicate with him" is being fed to the media.

I'm not debating as to whether he does or does not have a [self inflicted] injury to his throat.
But there is NO WAY you could possibly discern that from the pic you posted-
1. You're not able to see his neck throat area period
2. The quality of the pic is so poor, short of his immediate position, little else can be determined with any degree of certainty.

Personally, I agree with both of the preceding posts. I seem to recall that there was talk of communication between he and law-enforcement during his apprehension. I find that (like most things) it plays all to conveniently into the officials narrative.
Also, noticed that the pic of him sitting up has far less blood than the one of him lying down.
This whole thing is so grossly contrived and riddled with holes you'd have to have the common sense of an earthworm to buy into any of it.
Police use "flash-bangs," devices meant to stun people with a loud noise, and start 20 to 30 minutes of negotiation with Tsarnaev.
The wounded teen, who was lying in his own blood, didn’t surrender easily. An FBI agent negotiated with him for more than 20 minutes, Deveau (Watertown Police Chief) told CNN.
