Nadezhda Tolokonnikova...aka Nadia...one of 3 Pussy Riot feminist punkers convicted of hooliganism...and sentenced to 3 years in the gulag...was rushed to a hospital on 24 January...suffering from severe headaches and overwork...at her remote prison colony in Mordovia.
She had been forced to spend hours sewing jacket linings on a machine...often without rest for 24 hours...to make her daily quota of 320 jackets.
