A man wanted for questioning in the killing of his ex-wife was found dead after hanging himself in the same Bronx warehouse where her body was found, police sources said Friday.

Her body was under a dolly and had been covered by several blankets, sources said Friday. She had a head wound and wire wrapped around her neck, sources said. Cops deemed her death a homicide Friday.
Her ex-husband, a furniture restorer, hanged himself, sources said. His body was found Thursday night in a small closet on the same floor where his wife’s body was found earlier that day, sources said. Cops were trying to determine when he killed himself.
The day before the two bodies were discovered, a Bronx man called 911 reporting he heard a woman screaming in the furniture warehouse — and that when he knocked nobody answered. Cops came to the warehouse but left after they were unable to gain access.
About 10 hours later, Requieghmuda’s daughter in Brooklyn called 911 and reported her missing after getting a disturbing phone call from her dad — Requieghmuda’s ex-husband. He told his daughter he wanted to kill himself and was considering returning to his native Egypt.
The daughter pinged her missing mother’s cellphone to the Bronx warehouse, and cops returned their early Thursday. This time they managed to gain access — and discovered Requieghmuda’s body...
