Neville Townsend's History

Neville Townsend was a drug lord and crime lord in Russia with ties to the Russian Bratva, that used his ports to move their drugs. 30 years ago, as the result of N-13's actions, his narcotics smuggling operation was exposed. Because of that, the Bratva's Vory murdered his family as a warning to not turn state's evidence against them. The tragedy left him emotionally scarred and unable to sleep with a stable pattern. Believing N-13 to be Katarina Rostova, due to his KGB sources, Townsend created the Townsend Directive, a dead-only bounty on Katarina Rostova. When he learned of her death and that Raymond Reddington was N-13 and his relationship to Elizabeth Keen, he redirected the Townsend Directive at them. He nearly succeeded but died in an explosion set by Raymond Reddington.
