Leading Cuban musician arrested
The Cuban authorities have arrested one of the island's leading punk rock musicians, Gorki Aguila of band Porno Para Ricardo.
He could face charges of dangerousness, which allow the authorities to detain people who are likely to commit crimes.
According to fellow band members, he was picked up by police at his home in Havana on Monday as the group were preparing to record their latest album.
The group's lyrics are often critical of life on the communist island.
