Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Prabowo Subianto" in Indonesian language version.
Prabowo, 46, who attended the advanced officers training course at Ft. Bragg, N.C., in 1980 and wanted Wiranto's job as defense chief, was widely believed to be behind some of Indonesia's most flagrant human rights abuses. Among them are the disappearances of 14 student activists--five remain unaccounted for--and the supplying of provocateurs to encourage riots against ethnic Chinese merchants
A joint fact-finding team set up by the government alleged that the riots were part of a scenario engineered by former president Soeharto's son-in-law Prabowo Subianto, then the Army's Strategic Reserve Command (Kostrad) chief and most recently a Golkar Party presidential candidate before he lost the nomination, in his attempt to have martial law declared, which would allow him to take power amidst the national leadership crisis that ended with Soeharto's resignation on May 21.
