Jailed Pussy Riot singer 'found in hospital'

The husband of jailed Pussy Riot band member Nadezhda Tolokonnikova has told the BBC that he has spoken to her for the first time since she went missing 26 days ago.

Pyotr Verzilov said his wife was in a prison hospital in western Siberia.

He said she was undergoing tests for 'various conditions' at the Tuberculosis Hospital No 1 in Krasnoyarsk.
