We present a uniform broadband X-ray (0.5-100 keV) spectral analysis of 11 Swift/BAT selected Compton-thick (log(NH/cm^2) > 24) AGNs observed with Suzaku. We fit the Suzaku spectra with a AGN torus model by Ikeda et al. (2009). The main results are as follows. (1) Most of CTAGNs show small scattering fractions (<0.5%) implying a buried AGN nature. (2) Unabsorbed reflection components are commonly observed, suggesting that the tori are clumpy. (3) Comparsion with the results obtained for Compton-thin AGNs (Kawamuro et al. 2016) suggests that the properties of these CTAGNs can be understood as a smooth extension from Compton-thin AGNs with heavier obscuration.
