He has Niko kill many people, including [[Lenny Petrovic]], the son of the very powerful Russian gangster, [[Kenny Petrovic]], which leaves Mikhail, Dimitri and Niko in trouble. Dimitri sees this and negotiates with the [[Petrovic Family]] behind Mikhail's back. The Petrovics agree to lay off on one condition: [[Mikhail Faustin|Faustin]] must die; Dimitri cannot run because he says "''no matter where you go, people will find you''" so he is left with no choice. Dimitri tells Niko that he told Petrovic that Niko was a hired gun, so Petrovic agreed he would be spared, if Niko was the one to kill Faustin. Niko kills Faustin, and after a short period of time goes to collect his payment from Dimitri accompanied by Little Jacob (Jacob suspects Dimitri). | ||

They go to Roman's apartment to collect some stuff, where they find that Dimitri has had the safehouse and Roman's taxi depot burnt down; this greatly upsets Roman, launching him into a fit of rage.
