‘13,000 videos in single drive,’ Indian doctor jailed in US for recording nude videos of children, women
The Indian doctor held in US jail
An Indian doctor in Michigan, US, was detained by police and held in jail on a $2 million bond on charges related to serious sexual offences, including recording nude images and videos of children and women. The 40-year-old doctor, identified as Oumair Aejaz, had hidden cameras inside bathrooms, changing areas, hospital rooms, and even his own home.
Local media reported that he was arrested on August 8 after his wife produced the explicit videos before the authorities.
He reportedly came to the US from India in 2011 on a work visa. He started working in Michigan only after 2018.
Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard said Tuesday (Aug 20) that Aejaz had also recorded himself performing sexual acts on women in an unconscious state. He said the full extent of the crime is not known yet, and it could take months to fully investigate the matter.
Following his arrest, several search warrants have been issued, related to the doctor’s computers, phones, and 15 external devices. Bouchard said they had found a single hard drive that had over 13,000 videos stashed in it. Police believe the accused may also have uploaded such videos to cloud storage.

"The victimisation is so broad and the perversion so great, we're just beginning to wrap our arms around it," said Bouchard.
Oumair Aejaz was formally indicted on August 13 with one count of child sexually abusive activity, four counts of capturing an image of an unclothed person, and five counts of using a computer to commit a crime.
Prosecutors said the police have been "sifting through really jarring, alarming images" over the past few days.
The primary case against the doctor revolves around a 2023 incident, involving Aejaz allegedly recording a mother and her kids inside a changing room at the Goldfish Swimming Club.
Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald said, “These are children and moms at a swim school. 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 victimised by a person of trust in the community – a medical doctor."
