Pussy Riot member, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, has apparently turned up in a hospital, as opposed to what we reported via Rolling Stone yesterday. Peter Verzilov, her husband, has confirmed to Rolling Stone today that she's at a hospital in the Siberian region of Krasnoyarsk.
He was able to speak to his wife on Thursday after doctors from the Krasnoyarsk's Tuberculosis Hospital No. 1 contacted him. He was also told about his wife's whereabouts from the Russian prison service. The facility appears to function as a normal hospital, not strictly treating Tuberculosis.
Tolokonnikova had been missing, or unheard from, for the past 24 days after originally being stationed at Mordovia's camp, which left friends and family extremely concerned. Rolling Stone reported that she told her husband she had been kept in isolation during the transfer across Russia, which lasted 3-weeks. They did not want her to have any contact with the world.
"She was in good condition, she said her conditions were ok," Versilov told RS over the phone. "She's not sick right now, she's just having procedures and tests related to the hunger strike." He appears to claim that she is in relatively good health and that she says hospital conditions were fine.
Tolokonnikova defense team and family doesn't know where she will finish her two-year sentence for the "hooliganism" as a result of the demonstrations she was a part of with the Pussy Riot.
