Accused by human rights NGOs, and by his former officials, of having ordered the kidnapping of pro-democracy activists in the 1990s. Indonesia's key allies must now have tough talks with Prabowo and tell him that a return to political repression will cost him and Indonesia dearly in terms of trade, aid and possible sanctions.
