Video circulating online falsely claimed to show President Prabowo Subianto threatening to take action against the military if it uses its power against the people.

The footage is from January , when he addressed the country's security forces during a leadership event, and does not include any such threat.

The amendment sparked protests and fears of a return to the era of late dictator Suharto , whom he once served and used military figures to crack down on dissent.
