My laptop regularly goes to sleep at 4 AM and doesn’t wake up unless I do a hard reboot. Can you help me understand the logs?

Once in a while I wake up to see my laptop stuck in an unrecoverable state. The screen is off, power led is blinking and it does not respond to any key press.
The only way i can recover is by a hard reboot. If the laptop is not connected to the network, it normally shows a time around 4am. Checking
journalctl -r
I see that the laptop entered suspend state at 4:13 and rebooted at 4:49

My inference is either
1. It is going to sleep at 4:13, tries to wakeup at 4:49 (why?) and hangs in the process OR
2. It sleeps at 4:13 hangs at 4:49 and is stuck in that state until I force a hard reboot.

**Edit 1** I am not sure why it goes for sleep at that specific time. I normally go to sleep at midnight and I do not have any cron jobs that run at 4 am.
my crontab is
*/5 * * * * pkill offlineimap ;sleep 1;offlineimap -f INBOX
