Rochester Hills Doctor Films Nude Women, Children At Hospitals And Swim School: Police

Officials said it's one of the worst sexual predator cases they've ever worked on.

ROCHESTER HILLS, MI — A Rochester Hills doctor is facing charges after recording nude women and children for at least the past six years, according to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office.

Oumair Aejaz, 40, was charged with 10 counts, including:

  • One count of child sexually abusive activity.
  • One count of using a computer to create and 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.

Aejaz was placed in the Oakland County Jail on a $2 million bond, according to the sheriff's office.

Aejaz, who specializes in internal medicine, used hidden cameras to record children as young as 2-years-old and women of various ages in hospital rooms, changing areas, inside closets, bathrooms and bedrooms, according to the sheriff's office.

Aejaz had privileges at Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc Township and Henry Ford Macomb in Clinton Township, but was not on staff, according to the sheriff's office.

Investigators also believe the doctor recorded sexual encounters he had with numerous women that were either sleeping or unconscious, according to the sheriff's office.

Hidden cameras were also placed in a swim area at the Goldfish Swim School in Rochester, according to the sheriff's office.

"These are children and moms at a swim school," Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald said. "They’re there to teach their kids to swim. Because that brings their kids joy and because they want their kids to be safe around water. They were victimized by a person of trust in the community – a medical doctor."

"It’s more than an invasion of privacy," McDonald added. "It robs these moms and kids, and all of us, of a sense of safety we should have when we’re with our kids at a place like that."

Officials said detectives received a tip about Aejaz on Aug. 7 and quickly began to assemble a case against him.

Officers arrested Aejaz the next day at his home while officers executed a search warrant, according to the sheriff's office.

Officials confiscated six computers, four cell phones and 15 external storage devices from Aejaz’s home, according to the sheriff's office.

One device contained more than 13,000 videos Aejaz recorded during the past six years, according to the sheriff's office.

Investigators believe it will take them six months to complete a forensic examination of all the confiscated materials.

"This is one of the most disturbing sexual predator cases I have seen in my very long career," Oakland County Micheal Bouchard said. "He violates literally anyone and everyone he can. From a 2-year-old boy to grown women, no one is immune from his disgusting predatory behavior. Violating children in safe spaces as they change for a fun swim or sexually violating women who are still under sedation from a medical procedure shows his depravity has no limits."

"At the end of this case, it is my fervent hope he is held fully accountable behind bars," Bouchard added.

Aejaz, who came to the U.S. around 2011, is a citizen of India who has been working in the U.S. on a visa, according to the sheriff's office.

Aejaz completed his residency at Detroit Sinai Grace Hospital and then moved to Dawson, Alabama, then returned to Oakland County to continue his practice in internal medicine in 2018, according to the sheriff's office.

Investigators believe Aejaz may have committed crimes in Alabama, as well as Genesee and Macomb counties, and possibly other countries.

Investigators encouraged anyone who believes they were a victim of Aejaz to contact sheriff’s detectives at OCSOSIU@oakgov.com.
