Metro Detroit Doctor charged after secretly taking nude photos of kids & sleeping patients

A metro Detroit doctor is being held on $2 million bond on multiple felony charges for allegedly recording nude images of children and women for at least the past six years.

Dr. Oumair Aejaz, 40, who specializes in internal medicine, is accused of using hidden cameras to record children as young as age 2 and women of various ages in hospital rooms, changing areas, as well as inside closets, bathrooms and bedrooms he could access, at an area swim club & his home. He also sexually assaulted some of the victims as they were sedated.

Aejaz is a citizen of India who has been working in the United States on a visa. He came to this country around 2011, completed his residency at Detroit Sinai Grace Hospital and then moved to Dawson, Alabama. Aejaz returned to Oakland County to continue his practice in internal medicine
in 2018. He is on the staff at Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc Township and Henry Ford Macomb in Clinton Township.

Detectives believe Aejaz recorded sexual encounters he had with numerous women, with hospital patients who were either asleep or unconscious and recorded relatives in the bathroom or while changing clothes.

Sheriff’s detectives received a tip about Aejaz from his wife on Aug. 7 and began to assemble a case against him. He was arrested the following day at his home as detectives were executing a search warrant. Bouchard said detectives confiscated six computers, four cell phones and 15 external storage devices from Aejaz’s home.

One device contained more than 13,000 videos Aejaz recorded during the past six years. Detectives estimated it will take six months to complete a forensic examination of all the confiscated materials.

He faces 10 charges, including one count of child sexually abusive activity, one count of using a computer to create or reproduce child sexually abusive material, two counts of capturing or recording minors under 18 while nude, two counts of capturing or recording adults while nude, and four counts of using a computer to commit a crime.
