Ex-husband of slain missing BK woman found dead
The ex-husband of a missing 55-year-old Brooklyn woman who was found dead was discovered hanging inside of a closet inside his Bronx office building, police say.
The man was found inside an E. 136th Street office building late Thursday night. 
His ex-wife, Djamila Requieghmuda, was also discovered dead inside of the building Thursday morning.
Investigators say they were looking to question the woman's ex-husband after discovering her body.
Police say Requieghmuda's daughter reported her mother missing from her Brooklyn home on Wednesday morning.
Police say they found Requieghmuda's body on the fourth-floor of 783 E. 136th St.
She suffered from head trauma, police say.
A medical examiner will determine the cause of the former couple's deaths.
