[SIZE=4][COLOR="#696969"][FONT=Century Gothic][CENTER]Solntsevskaya Bratva, named after the Solntsevo neighborhood, is the most powerful and most dangerous mafia group of Russia. It is estimated to have more than 5,000 members Solntsevskaya Bratva was formed in 1980s by the gangsters Syergyej Mihajlov 'Mikhas' and Viktor Averin. They based their organization on Western guidelines rather than following the traditional style, but the discipline was strictly followed. Syergyej Mihajlov Mikhas instead of vor called himself a businessman. The mafia gangs under this group had a complete control over the south-west region of the city. This group later on merged with the Orekhovskaya mafia group which was run by Syergyej Timofeyev, a thief-in-law. This merge occurred due to the fear of Chechen mafia group.In 1989, Mikhaylov along with several other leaders were arrested which negatively effected this organization. Several other gangsters tried forming their separate groups but in vain, as most of them got killed. In spite of all this, Solntsevskaya Bratva regained itself in the 90s and emerged as the most powerful and dangerous criminal organization. Mikhaylov took hold of it along with the businesses owned by Orekhovskaya group.

Solntsevskaya Bratva was believed to control around 120 legitimate businesses in the Moscow, Crimea and Samara regions as well as many businesses abroad. The Bratva offers them protection as well as assists them in various other matters other than the legal. Mikhaylov was arrested in 1996 in Switzerland, but strangely enough all the witnesses were found dead before his trial. So as there was no evidence against Mikhaylov, he was freed and to-date he is the boss of the Bratva

[COLOR="#696969"][COLOR="#696969"][SIZE=4][FONT=Century Gothic][CENTER]Solntsevskaya held a firm grip on the Eastern European world of crime, and wished to expand. As such, they sent a group of their best soldiers across the world, to the Eastern Coast of the USA; Los Santos. ‘Pasha’, Borislav, and Sergei arrived in San Andreas, quickly seeking out and purchasing a Cafe from it's previous owner who was Serb, which they kept the name. The cafe served as a front organization; by day, the men would sell quality liquor to all who entered the store, and by night, shady deals were struck, as large quantities of drugs were smuggled into the country via cargo boat.

The group remained small; Pasha and Borislav began to hire cheap Russian workers to tend to the store, mop the floors and work the cash register. Over the days and weeks, these workers would be tested on their discipline, respect and capability. Eventually, the cafe would begin a target of a robbery – an incident that displayed some of the workers’ talents in weapons and violence. The result of the Robbery had the men close down the cafe, to lower themselves on the radar. The cafe has been since closed and have plans for renovation or even possibly to be sold.[/CENTER][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/COLOR]
