Prabowo Subianto claims victory in Indonesia 2024 election, so who is the former army commander?

Indonesia, one of the world's largest democracies, and the biggest predominantly Muslim one, is about to get a new leader. It's a young, vibrant democracy — half of the nation's 205 million registered voters are under 40. After polls closed on Monday the huge job of counting ballots got under way across the thousands of islands that make up the Indonesian archipelago.

But even as the ballots were counted, Indonesia's current Defense Minister, Prabowo Subianto, declared himself the winner.
