Tan Sri Rahim Tamby Chik is a former vice-president of the United Malays National Organization. He was aligned with Dr. Mahathir during the 1987 UMNO General Assembly. He was the chief minister of Malacca from 1982 to 1994.
In 1994 Rahim was charged with statutory rape of a minor, however, the public prosecutor later withdrew the charge citing lack of evidence.[1] Opposition politician Lim Guan Eng was later charged with sedition for printing and distributing pamphlets containing details of the allegation against Rahim.
On March 2011, PKR had alleged that he and a prominent businessman, Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, was behind the screening of a video purportedly depicting PKR leader Anwar Ibrahim with an unidentified woman.
