  4. it's funny, but russian mafia in Russian sounds quite the same - MAFIA. This italian word bacame very popular between Russians, and we do use it every time we say about criminal groups that lead any kind of out-low business. MAFIA. Furthermore, we occasionally use the word "bratki" to say about a group of criminals with some distinctive signs like big golden necklaces and golden finger-rings.
