 * [[Image:Ledgreen.png|20px]] Weak Delete - unless I see some verifiable sources that assert notability. It appears that this person may have made the news though, so I might be persuaded if a few more sources could be found.

 * Keep He appears to be a notable figure. He is in fact not a minor figure in the Israeli underworld, but actually a major league crime boss. While conducting a search through google, i was able to find many verifiable sources which would be sufficient to grant him notability status. These include the following six sources from the from Haaretz news agency:
 * The aforementioned source, Alleged crime boss Asi Abutbul suspected of bribing ER doctor,
 * Reputed crime boss Abutbul can't find representation after his lawyer is murdered,
 * Home of judge who convicted alleged crimelord Abutbul broken into
 * Alleged crime boss Abutbul convicted for aiding buying of arms
 * Director of Ichilov emergency room charged with taking bribes
 * Indictment filed against alleged organized crime boss Asi Abutbul

In addition to this, i found:
 * Asi Abutbul alludes to having information on Yoram Hacham's killers and Slain TA lawyer's underworld client interrupts court over killing from Jerusalem Post
 * A severe indictment against alleged crime boss Asi Abutbul and 23 others was filed Friday morning
 * LAW missile fired in Netanya - International Middle East Media Centre

There could be more, but i feel that these many sources should suffice in granting him notability status. In my opinion, the article does not need to be deleted, but rather reworked. Joyson Noel (talk) 15:15, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

 * keep abundant sources present. AGF, the nom had apparently  not even looked. DGG (talk) 19:29, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * keep There are no other entries for the Abutbul family but these guys are all over the news recently :Police reportedly warned Abutbul of possible hit and :Netanya mayor: I don't fear for my life ie, from Francois Abutbul. What en wikipedia has to get straight is who's who in the family.  I'll try checking he wikipedia, they would presumably have more info. (unless the Abutbul family is routinely removing it...)

 * Keep Plenty of sources especially in hebrew. The only real criteria for notability is multiple reliable sources.  Jon513 (talk) 08:33, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
