Vladimir Glebov from GTA IV

Vladimir "Vlad" Glebov 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 who warns Niko that Vlad is no one in Liberty City.

After Niko learns that he's been having sex with Mallorie behind his cousin Roman's back, Niko invades Comrades and chases Vlad throughout Broker, eventually executing him under the Broker Bridge. Ignoring Vlad's warnings that his death will prompt Mikhail Faustin to track down his murderer and kill him, Niko violently shoots him in his left eye, causing a bloody spurt. His body is unceremoniously dumped into the water. Mikhail will later admit that Vlad was an idiot, and the only reason he was 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.

Vladimir is voiced by Misha Kuznetsov.
