Murders Committed by Niko Bellic

There are a lot of hit missions in Grand Theft Auto IV, and Niko has accrued the greatest body-count of any GTA protagonist thus far. Here is a list of his intended targets ("collateral" murders such as those of unidentified gunmen, pedestrians, or police are not included):

 * Charles Matteo - Murdered for discovering Phil Bell's role in sabotaging a cocaine deal between the the Ancelotti crime family and the Russian Mafia.

 * Anthony Corrado - Murdered for leaking information to the FIB via wire, for James Pegorino.
 * Dimitri Rascalov - Murdered for betraying and trying to kill Niko.

Random Encounter Kills

 * Eddie Low - Murdered by Niko in self-defense (Eddie Low is a random character, so killing him or even encountering him in the first place is optional).
 * Clarence Little - Can be spared, although in a later random encounter, he must be killed anyway, unless the encounter is avoided altogether.

Choices

 * Jimmy - Niko can kill him during the mission Clean Getaway. It would change the dialogue with Vlad through the phone.
 * Ivan Bytchkov - Niko can let him fall from the building, on Vlad's orders, or help him up.
 * Cherise Glover - Niko can shoot her in Ruff Rider, or let her live.
 * Clarence Little - Niko can kill him, on Francis McReary's orders, or let him live.
 * Alonzo - Niko can kill him, or let him warn Teddy.
 * Adam Dimayev - Niko can kill on orders of The United Liberty Paper or just leave.
 * Darko Brevic - Niko can either take revenge by shooting him multiple times, or spare him.
 * Unnamed Jewish Mobster - Niko can kill him in the Majestic Hotel or walk away.
 * Vasily - Niko can kill him in a drive-by in the mission Wrong is Right

Kill One Or The Other

 * Trey "Playboy X" Stewart or Dwayne Forge - Both characters ask Niko to kill the other.


 * Francis McReary or Derrick McReary - Niko can shoot either with his sniper rifle; again, both have asked Niko to kill their opposite number.
