M.HERALD/
Five people were reportedly injured and at least 80 detained after 1,500 stone throwing youths clashed with police in Holguin as the Los Aldeanos, a top rebellious hip hop duo, tried to visit two youths jailed since Dec. 25 for playing their music too loudly.
The duo of Aldo Rodríguez Baquero, 27, and Bian Rodríguez Gala, 26, from Habana's Nuevo Vedado neighborhood wanted to visit Marcos and Antonio Lima Cruz, jailed since for nearly two months on charges of creating a public scandal by playing their rap music too loudly.
Most reports said they were not allowed to enter the jail.

Ah, yes, dusty and boring Holguin. Most notable for its steep staircase climb of a hill to view the city.
Where a "yuma"/ gullible foreigner can't sit in the central park...without constant secret police surveillance..and locals fear being arrested for socializing with the yumas.
