Otari Kvantrishvili (Georgian: ოთარ კვანტრიშვილი, Russian: Ота́ри Квантришвили; January 27, 1948 – April 5, 1994) was a Georgian mafia boss and one of Moscow's leading organised crime figures during the early 1990s.

[2] During the chaotic transition to capitalism in the early 1990s, Kvantrishvili became something of a public face for the mafia, befriending politicians and celebrities such as Joseph Kobzon while also acting as a mediator between various underworld factions, including the thieves in law and Slavic and Chechen mobsters.

[3] The Podolskaya OPG (Russian: Подольская организованная преступная группировка (ОПГ)) were close to Kvantrishvili.

At 5:45 pm on 5 April 1994, he was shot dead by a sniper while leaving a Krasnopresnensky bathhouse in Moscow.

[14] On September 29, 2008, four members of the Orekhovo-Medvedkovo gang were convicted, among other things, for organizing Kvantrishvili's murder.
