"Innocent of Muslim" actress sue filmaker.

The U.S. ambassador to Libya and three embassy employees were killed on Sept. 11.

“The film is vile and reprehensible,” Garcia said in the complaint. “This lawsuit is not an attack on the First Amendment nor on the right for Americans to say what they think, but does request that the offending content be removed from the Internet.”

The actress, whose voice and those of the other actors was dubbed in Arabic on the YouTube clip, received death threats, she said. YouTube declined her request to remove the clip from the Internet, she said.

Steven Seiden, a lawyer for Nakoula, didn’t immediately return a call to his office.

YouTube said in an e-mailed statement the company is reviewing the complaint.

The case is Cindy Lee Garcia v. Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, BC492358, California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles (Los Angeles).
