Asi Abutbul (Hebrew: אסי אבוטבול; born 1975) is an Israeli mobster who has spent years in prison for criminal activity. In May 2006, he and mobster Eli Naim were arrested on suspicions that Abutbul sold weapons. A BMW importer named Kamoor was accused of giving him two cars for free. In 2008, Abutbul was sentenced to 18 months in prison for selling weapons to gangs in Jerusalem and Netanya. On June 21, 2009, he and 19 of his men were jailed, and he received a total sentence of 13 years. His brother François Abutbul was shot and killed on July 31, 2011; reports say François led the same organization. On August 29, 2017, Abutbul was charged in connection with the 1999 murder of Arthur Rosen and with conspiring to murder his attorney Yoram Hakham in 2008.
