Actor Leah Remini filed a lawsuit against the Church of Scientology and its leader, David Miscavige, alleging that she has been threatened, harassed and stalked.
Actress Leah Remini was a child member of the Church of Scientology, but left the movement in 2013 and has since become one of its most outspoken critics. She won Emmy awards for her documentary series about the religion - and has now filed a lawsuit making several allegations.
