Mazyar Keshvari (Persian: مازیار کشوری; born 5 March 1981) is an Iranian-born Norwegian former politician for the Progress Party and a convicted felon who is serving two prison sentences for fraud[1] and violent threats.[2] He was elected as a substitute member of the Norwegian parliament for the city of Oslo in 2013, representing the right-wing and anti-immigration Progress Party, and attended parliamentary sessions from 2013 to 2018 as the substitute of the mandate holder Siv Jensen who has been on leave from parliament during her government service. As a politician he was known for taking a hard stance on immigration, calling for a complete ban on further immigration to Norway, a stop to the practice of accepting asylum seekers in Norway, and the deportation of immigrants convicted of crimes.[3][4][5][6] In 2019 he was convicted of aggravated fraud for defrauding the Norwegian parliament and in 2020 he was sentenced to 11 months imprisonment.[7][1] He left the Norwegian parliament following his indictment in 2018 and also left the Progress Party in October 2019.[8] In 2019 he was also arrested and charged with making violent threats,[9] and he was convicted and sentenced to an additional four months in prison in 2020.[2]
