An imprisoned member of the punk band Pussy Riot ended her nine-day hunger strike on Tuesday but her husband said she has vowed to restart it if she is not moved to another prison.

Pyotr Verzilov told The Associated Press that his wife, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, was in stable condition after a hunger strike to protest working conditions in the women's prison where she is serving a two-year sentence.
