London, November 06 Austin Powers star Verne "Mini-Me" Troyer's ex-girlfriend has got a restraining order against him over "safety fears".

The former beauty queen received the judgment on her favor to stop the actor from coming close to her, reports the Daily Star.

Troyer is notable for his height of 2 ft 8 in, the result of cartilage-hair hypoplasia dwarfism, making him one of the shortest men in the world.

He has starred in many film including 'Harry potter and the Philosopher's Stone', 'Men in Black.' (ANI)
