Germany imposes ban on Tom Cruise

Germany has banned the makers of Tom Cruise's new movie from filming at military sites in the country because the actor is a Scientologist.

The German defence ministry said Cruise has "publicly professed to being a member of the Scientology cult".

Scientology has been monitored in Germany in the belief that its activities are "directed against the free democratic order" in the country.

Scientology masquerades as a religion to make money, Germany said, but leaders of the church reject this.
