Johannes Halser (born 10 June 1982) is a police officer and politician who served in the Landtag of Liechtenstein from 2017 to 2019. He has also served as mayor of Gamprin since 2019.
Hasler was born on 10 June 1982 in Vaduz as the son of psychologist Werner Hasler and gerontologist Hedwig (née Nägele) as one of five children. He is the grandson of Franz Nägele. He attended commercial school in Feldkirch and then a police academy in Switzerland from 2002 to 2003. He received a diploma in trust management at the University of Liechtenstein in 2009 and then a diploma in entrepreneurial management in 2012 at the same university. [1]
From 2003 to 2019, he was a member of the Liechtenstein National Police, primarily as an economic and financial investigator. He was the chairman of the local group of the Progressive Citizens' Party (FBP) in Gamprin from 2014 to 2019.
