Vladimir Glebov from GTA IV
Vladimir "Vlad" Glebov (1967 - 2008) is a Russian loan-shark in Hove Beach, Broker. Glebov owns a Russian bar, called "Comrades" in the neighbourhood. Glebov attempts to raise his profile with the other Russian gangsters like Mikhail Faustin by doing collections for the gangster. He also has Niko Bellic do some jobs for him, including setting up a protection ring and orders him to assassinate a former ally, Ivan Bytchkov.
After Niko learns that Vlad has been having an affair with Mallorie behind his cousin Roman's back, Niko invades Comrades Bar and chases Vlad throughout Broker, eventually executing him under the Algonquin Bridge, ignoring Vlad's warnings that his death will prompt Mikhail Faustin to track down his murderer and kill him. His body is unceremoniously dumped into the river. Mikhail later admits that Vlad was an idiot, and the only reason he was still employed in his organization was because Vlad's sister was Mikhail's former mistress.
It is implied that Vlad is a heavy drinker, abuses cocaine, and is a womanizer. He also threatens Roman continually but fails to protect him from the Albanian Mafia despite promises to the contrary. Vlad drives a sky blue Marbelle sedan, as seen in the cutscene for Clean Getaway and the chase part in Uncle Vlad.
Vladimir is voiced by Misha Kuznetsov.
