ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. – An Oakland County doctor who pleaded no contest to 31 counts of sexual misconduct will spend decades behind bars.
Dr. Oumair Aejaz has been accused of secretly recording and assaulting former patients and others.
In October, Aejaz pleaded no contest to 31 counts of sexual misconduct involving victims ranging from adults to a child as young as two years old.
The charges included first and second-degree criminal sexual conduct, child sexually abusive commercial activity, using a computer to commit a crime and capturing/distributing images of an unclothed person.
Pleading no contest has the same legal effect as a guilty plea, meaning Aejaz is accepting the court’s punishment without admitting fault.
Aejaz did not speak at his sentencing due to his no-contest plea.
There were three victim impact statements before his sentencing Tuesday, Dec. 2. They spoke of how they were social, active and ambitious before the abuse, which damaged their mental and physical health. They spoke of anxiety, panic attacks, feelings of shame and an inability to trust people anymore.
“I was a social butterfly who had its wings ripped off,” one woman said.
The women who spoke described Aejaz as evil, sadistic and narcissistic. The judge agreed, saying that his actions were “beyond words.”

Prosecution praised those who came to the courthouse to speak for their bravery before calling Aejaz a predator who kept videos of his assaults as trophies.
“Incomprehensible that there’s a human being that could stoop to this level of conduct. You are not deserving of any title or any recognition. You have damaged so many lives, hurt so many people and all I can do is put you in prison,” the judge said before sentencing. “I wish I could do more, but I can’t.”
Aejaz was sentenced to 35-60 years in a Michigan prison. He is also required to register as a lifetime sex offender.
Investigation into Aejaz
In August 2024, authorities launched an investigation into Aejaz following a tip-off from his wife.
A search warrant recovered six computers, four cell phones and 15 hard drives. One hard drive reportedly contained over 13,000 videos Aejaz recorded over the last six years.
The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office described one video as being a recording of “a woman is basically unconscious in a hospital bed and he’s violating her.”

Aejaz, a contracted worker at two hospitals, was charged with various counts related to secretly recording individuals, including minors, at hospitals, a swim school and private homes.
Authorities said his wife contacted police after she discovered videos of women undressing and recordings of their young sons.
