Havana/The musician Gorki Águila was arrested this afternoon in Havana, as he was traveling in a car with two journalists from the television channel France24. The composer and singer managed to call this newspaper from the Fifth Police Station in the Playa municipality, where he was taken with the two reporters.

Águila, leader of the punk rock band Porno para Ricardo, does not know why he has been arrested and when talking with 14ymedio, the police still had not informed him whether he would remain in a cell in the station, or be fined or prosecuted. Last August, the musician was detained for several hours in the same station, where he was warned that if continue his activism "those who invite you to visit another country will have to come looking for you in a boat."

In May, a similar incident occurred when Águila was forcibly detained outside the Museum of Fine Arts in Havana for carrying a poster with the image of the graffiti artist El Sexto along with the word "Freedom."
