Vladimir "Vlad" Glebov (1967 - 2008) is a Russian loan-shark in Hove Beach, Broker and a character in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Glebov owns a Russian bar, called "Comrades" in the neighbourhood. Glebov attempts to increase his status with the other Russian gangsters like Mikhail Faustin by doing collections for them.

He also employs Niko Bellic, initially to help enforce his protection racket but also for low-level assassinations, including that of Ivan Bytchkov.

It is implied that Vlad is a heavy drinker, abuses cocaine, and is a womanizer. He also threatens Roman constantly and regularly fails to protect him from the Albanian Mafia, despite promises to the contrary.

Vlad drives a sky blue Marbelle sedan, as seen in the cut-scene for Clean Getaway and the chase sequence in Uncle Vlad.


Vladimir is voiced by Misha Kuznetsov.

Vlad's Death

After Niko learns that Vlad has been having an affair with Mallorie Bardas behind his cousin Roman's back, Niko confronts Vlad at Comrades Bar. After a brief chase through the neighborhood, Niko shoots Vlad under the Algonquin Bridge before tossing his corpse into the Humboldt River, ignoring the fact that his boss, Mikhail Faustin, will certainly track down and eliminate the man responsible for his murder. Mikhail later admits that Vlad was an idiot, and the only reason he was still employed in his organization was because Mikhail "fucks his (Vlad's) sister." Since Vlad is not found after being killed, the LCPD database lists him as "missing".

When Niko corners Vlad at the shore of the river, the game prompts the player to execute Vlad with a pistol; however, he can be killed any way the player wishes. Vladimir Glebov character intro
