Diario de Cuba, Havana, 8 November 2015 — The musician Gorki Águila was
released on Saturday after being held for a few hours in the 5th police
station in Playa municipality in Havana. Águila was arrested with two
French journalists who were also released.

As he explained in statements to Radio Marti, the reason for the arrest
was his wearing a shirt with the phrase "Down with you-know-you" while
he was being interviewed on the street by journalists.

"People (agents) follow me and one of the minions spoke with State
Security, so that was why we were stopped," said Águila.

After two hours in the cells, the musician had an interview with a
member of the State Security, according to the artist, and threatened
him, "in the form of advice" to stop any kind of activism. "Same as
always," said Águila.
