London, Dec 7 (ANI): A Palestinian peace activist has dragged British funnyman Sacha Baron Cohen to court claiming 70 million pounds in a libel suit over his portrayal in the flick 'Bruno'.
A scene in 'Bruno' shows Cohen's character claiming to have travelled to the Ein El-Hilweh refugee camp in Lebanon to meet a leader of the Al-Aqsa Brigades. A caption labels Abu Aita as "Terrorist group leader, Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade".
Ayman Abu Aita, a grocer and activist from Bethlehem says the movie has destroyed his life. He claims that his life has been threatened since the movie's release and adds that he does not support terrorism, reports the Telegraph.
Aita says he met Cohen believing he was a German making a film about the Palestinian cause. (ANI)
