The '''Russian Mafia''', in ''GTA 2'', are led by [[Jerkov]] and are experts in contract killings and gun running. They are located in the [[Industrial District]] and are in a rivalry with the [[Hare Krishna]] and in an intense rivalry with [[The Zaibatsu Corporation]]. Jerkov hires [[Claude Speed]] to kill Zaibatsu gang members, save Jerkov from assassins and killing other Russian drug dealers, amongst other things. Their favorite radio station is KGBH, a pun on the Soviet KGB. Other members include [[Ivan]], [[Uncle Vanka]], [[Bilovski]], [[Ziggy Pole]], [[Lodov]], [[Shagski]], [[Sandra Tito]] and [[Chesti-Kov]].

The '''Russian Mafia''' runs the south and west part of [[Broker]], [[Liberty City in GTA IV|Liberty City]]. Members can be seen all over [[Hove Beach]], [[Firefly Island]] and [[Beachgate]] in large numbers, the majority of them appear to wear Russian caps. They may wear any of a variety of clothes, including suits, Russian fur hats, leather gloves, camo trousers, black/diamond-knit turtlenecks and green/brown suit jackets. Some have tattoos on their hands -- some have a Soviet Russia hammer and sickle on the back of the hand, some have a cross on the palm, and there are two other as-yet unidentified tattoos. There are three known Russian crime syndicates in the [[GTA IV Era]]; [[Faustin Family|one]] is led by [[Mikhail Faustin]], [[Petrovic Family|one]] led by [[Kenny Petrovic]], and one led by [[Ray Bulgarin]]. The gang's known enemy is [[Niko Bellic]]. Unidentified Russians in fur hats and sunglasses will shoot at you in the [[Russian Shop]] should you open fire at the clerk; considering the store's nature and location, these are likely to be Russian Mafia members fulfilling their part of a protection racket. Russian's weapons range from [[Pistol]]'s, a [[Combat Shotgun]], or [[AK47]]'s. The Russians are very loyal to each other. If Niko fires at one Russian, then other Russians within Niko's area will shoot at him.
