  • The "GTA gang" (Russian: банда ГТА; Banda GTA) is the nickname given to a violent gang of murderers and terrorists located near Moscow, Russia that robbed and murdered occupants of automobiles traveling on the Federal Automobile Road M-4 after stopping them using homemade caltrops. The Russian media dubbed them the "GTA gang" because of the similarity between their violent robberies and the actions of characters in the Grand Theft Auto video game series. Formed in March 2012 by to train soldiers for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), the gang was ultimately apprehended after a gunfight with police in the village of Udelnaya, near Moscow, on 6 November 2014, during which the gang members were captured and Subkhanov was killed. The gang was responsible for seventeen murders and two serious injuries in Moscow Oblast and Kaluga Oblasts, over the course of two and a half years. (en)
  • Ба́нда ГТА — преступная группировка, совершившая серию убийств в Москве и Подмосковье, преимущественно автомобилистов на трассе М4 «Дон». В СМИ банда получила одноимённое название по аналогии картины совершаемых ими преступлений с игровыми заданиями серии компьютерных игр Grand Theft Auto (сокращённо GTA, рус. ГТА). По данным «Российской газеты», сами члены банды называли себя «джамаатом». С середины лета 2014 года в прессе и ряде новостных интернет-изданий появилась информация о том, что на трассе М4 «Дон» орудует убийца или несколько убийц, которые по ночам останавливают машины при помощи подброшенных на дорогу устройств для прокалывания шин, а затем, подходя под предлогом помощи (либо проезжая мимо на автомобиле), расстреливают водителя и пассажиров.
