tensorflow while_loop: ValueError: None values not supported

I'm trying to use slice a tensor object in my graph. Code is as follows:

        utt_inputs = []
        idx = tf.zeros(shape=(), dtype=tf.int32)
        def add_inputs(idx):
            utt_input = tf.slice(last_outputs, begin=[idx, 0], size=[self.args.uttWindowSize, self.args.wordUnits])
            utt_inputs.append(utt_input)

        def my_cond(idx):
            idx = tf.add(idx, 1)
            return tf.less(idx, self.batchSize)

        tf.while_loop(cond=my_cond, body=add_inputs, loop_vars=[idx])

where self.batchSize is a placeholder of tf.int32. Last_outputs is a 2-d tensor. However, when I run the code, tensorflow gives an error:

The function passed to the body parameter should return a tensor value, not None. Try changing the function to the following.

def add_inputs(idx):
    utt_input = tf.slice(last_outputs, begin=[idx, 0],
    size=[self.args.uttWindowSize, self.args.wordUnits])
    utt_inputs.append(utt_input)
    return tf.constant(0 , dtype=tf.int32 , name="ret_val") #Dummy

From the docs,

body is a callable returning a (possibly nested) tuple, namedtuple or list of tensors of the same arity (length and structure) and types as loop_vars.
