Who Is Dr. Oumair Aejaz?

Dr. Oumair Aejaz is an internal medicine physician who has worked as a contracted doctor in Michigan since 2018. He held privileges at medical facilities such as Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc Township and Henry Ford Macomb Hospital in Clinton Township. Known for his role as a trusted healthcare provider, Dr. Aejaz has now come under intense scrutiny following serious allegations of misconduct.

The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office has accused Dr. Aejaz of using hidden cameras for secretly recording children and adults in private areas such as bathrooms, changing rooms, and hospital rooms. He is also charged with sexual assaults on women, some of whom appear unconscious or asleep in the recordings. These incidents, spanning at least six years, include allegations of capturing and storing explicit content on his personal devices. Investigators suspect there may be numerous additional victims as they continue to review thousands of videos seized from his residence.

What Are the Allegations Against Dr. Oumair Aejaz?

Dr. Oumair Aejaz faces serious allegations of using hidden cameras to secretly film minors and adults in private settings, including bathrooms, changing rooms, and hospital rooms. He is also accused of engaging in sexual misconduct and creating explicit recordings of non-consensual encounters. 

Investigators have identified these disturbing acts as part of a pattern of behavior spanning several years, leading to formal charges for various crimes. Below is a breakdown of the specific allegations against Dr. Aejaz:

• One count of child sexually abusive activity for creating or participating in the production of explicit content involving minors.
• One count of using a computer to create or reproduce child sexually abusive material.
• Two counts of capturing / recording children under the age of 18 while nude.
• Two counts of capturing / recording two women over the age of 18 while nude, without their consent.
• Four counts of using a computer to commit crimes, including producing and storing explicit material.
• Additional investigations are underway to determine whether Dr. Aejaz may also face charges of first- or second-degree criminal sexual conduct based on the evidence uncovered.

Authorities believe these allegations represent only a portion of the offenses, as they continue to review the thousands of recordings seized from his residence.

A History of Sexual Abuse

June 2024: Allegations from Dr. Aejaz’s Wife

The history of Michigan doctor Oumair Aejaz’s alleged sexual abuse came to light in June 2024 when his wife filed for divorce and a personal protection order. In her legal filings, she alleged that Dr. Aejaz had been secretly recording her in their home since 2019. 

Despite her objections, he reportedly installed hidden cameras in various rooms, including the bathroom, to capture footage without her consent. These accusations were pivotal in initiating the investigation that exposed a larger pattern of abuse.

August 7-8, 2024: Police Investigation and Search

Following a tip from his wife, the police began investigating Dr. Aejaz and the alleged incidents on August 7, 2024. The next day, law enforcement conducted a search of his residence, seizing numerous devices, including four cell phones, six computers, and 15 storage drives. 

Among these, investigators discovered a hard drive containing approximately 13,000 videos. The footage reportedly showed minors, young women, and others in vulnerable situations, including recordings taken in changing rooms, bathrooms, and hospital rooms.

August 13, 2024: Formal Charges and Court Appearance

Dr. Aejaz was formally charged on August 13, 2024, and appeared in court at the 52-3 District Court in Rochester Hills, Michigan. He faced multiple charges, including allegations of capturing explicit recordings using hidden cameras and committing sexual assaults. 

Due to the severity of the accusations and the evidence gathered, the judge set Dr. Aejaz’s bail at $2 million, signaling the gravity of the situation and the potential risk to the public.

August 20, 2024: Oakland County Sheriff’s Update

On August 20, 2024, the Oakland County Sheriff held a news conference to provide an update on the investigation. Officials revealed the discovery of hundreds of explicit images and videos spanning several years. The footage included recordings of young women and minors in private spaces like changing rooms and bathrooms. 

Additionally, investigators uncovered videos allegedly showing Dr. Aejaz engaging in sexual assaults on unconscious hospital patients in hospital rooms. Authorities are still determining whether this content was shared with others, which could lead to further legal ramifications.

August 26, 2024: Court Hearing and Ongoing Investigation

Dr. Aejaz attended a court hearing via video conference on August 26, 2024. While his $2 million bond and its conditions remained unchanged, the investigation continued to unfold. With thousands of videos yet to be reviewed, authorities anticipate identifying additional victims and uncovering more details about the extent of his alleged abuses. His next court appearance was scheduled for September 16, 2024.
