January 7, 1972 - Vladimir Belov

Operating primarily within Moscow's Khovrino District during the late Soviet and early post-Soviet period, Belov built a criminal record that combined brigandry with serial murder — a pairing that placed him among Russia's documented violent offenders of that era. The geographic concentration of his crimes gave him both a nickname and a defined place in Russian criminal history.
