Saera Khan

Saera Tithi Khan (born 23 April 1979 in Oslo) is a Bangladeshi-Norwegian politician for the Labour Party.

She was the only member of parliament with immigrant background before Akhtar Chaudhry won a seat, representing Oslo, in the October 2007 elections.

[3] When this was shown to be false, she instead claimed that she had a boyfriend who was a special operations soldier, and that the phone bills originated from satellite telephone calls to this boyfriend,[4] triggering an investigation by the Norwegian Army because Norwegian soldiers are not allowed to receive private satellite calls while on duty.

[6] The British Ministry of Defence subsequently denied[7] that soldiers in the ISAF force were allowed to receive satellite phone calls.

[8][9] The morning after these revelations, 8 October, Khan went on sick leave[10] and announced later in the day that she is resigning as candidate for the 2009 parliamentary elections.
