A Lebanese court decided on Monday to block Internet access to the anti-Islam film that has provoked rage across the Muslim world, a judicial source told media outlets.

Judge Nadim Zouein decided "to stop the online circulation of the film 'Innocence of Muslims' in Lebanon," following a complaint filed by lawyer Mai Khansa, the source said.

"Innocence of Muslims" insults Islam and the Holy Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), and has led to violent protests across the Muslim world.

Peaceful protests against the offensive U.S. movie and the French cartoons the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) in a French satirical magazine have been staged in major provinces across Lebanon, with top local religious figures vowed to keep on protest moves until online websites stop circulating the offensive film.
