Murders by Niko Bellic

There are many hit missions in Grand Theft Auto IV, and Niko Bellic has aquirred the greatest body count of any GTA protagonist thus far, most likely because he works as a hired gun instead of a creating a criminal empire. Here is a list of his intended targets ("collateral" murders such as those of unidentified gunmen, pedestrians, or police are not included): Note: the words in (brackets) are the affiliations of the victims, "Independent" means they have no affiliation to a gang and formely means they used to be in that gang but are out of the life.
