A Michigan doctor, Dr Oumair Aejaz, stands accused of secretly recording women and children for more than six years using hidden cameras in various locations, including hospital rooms, changing areas, closets, and bathrooms.According to the Oakland County Sheriffs Office, Aejaz allegedly recorded children as young as two years old, as well as women of various ages, without their knowledge or consent. The recordings took place in places where individuals expected privacy, such as hospital settings and changing rooms. Detectives believe Aejaz also filmed his sexual encounters with multiple women and hospital patients, many of whom were either asleep or unconscious during the recordings.Dr Aejaz, who specializes in internal medicine, held privileges at Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc Township and Henry Ford Macomb in Clinton Township, although he was not a staff member at either facility.Sheriff Michael Bouchard expressed his deep concern over the case, stating, This is one of the most disturbing sexual predator cases I have seen in my very long career. He violated literally anyone and everyone he could. From a 2-year-old boy to a grown woman, no one was immune from his disgusting predatory behavior.pic.twitter.com/x7vqliOr3a— Oakland County Sheriffs Office (@oaklandsheriff) August 20, 2024Law enforcement officials seized six computers, four cell phones, and 15 external storage devices from Aejazs residence. Amongthese, one device reportedly contained over 13,000 videos that Aejaz had secretly recorded. Some of these videos were found to have been taken at a local swim club, further emphasizing the doctors exploitation of vulnerable individuals in what should have been safe environments.Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald highlighted the severity of the situation, stating, These are children and moms at a swimming school. They were victimized by a person of trust in the community – a medical doctor. It robs these moms and kids, and all of us, of a sense of safety we should have when were with our kids at a place like that.The investigation is ongoing, with detectives estimating it may take up to six months to complete a thorough forensic examination of all the confiscated materials.Dr Aejaz, originally from India, has been working in the United States on a visa since 2011. He completed his residency at Detroit Sinai Grace Hospital and later moved to Dawson, Alabama, before returning to Oakland County in 2018 to continue his medical practice.
