Lars "Lasse" Erik Oliver Lindroth (born Cambiz Fachericia; 9 November 1972 – 11 July 1999) was an Iranian-Swedish comedian, actor and writer.

Lindroth was born in Teheran, Iran, as Cambiz Fachericia, and was adopted by a Swedish family from Täby around the age of six months.

[1] He became popular in Sweden as a comedian in the mid-1990s, under the stage name Ali Hussein.

For example, he played in the TV series Sjukan, which was a Swedish version of British sitcom Only When I Laugh.

His Iranian origin allowed him to play on the prejudices about immigrants from different countries, while also making jokes about racists of all sorts.
