(WWJ) An Oakland County doctor accused of secretly recording women and children — including his own family — has now pleaded no contest to dozens of sexual misconduct charges.
Authorities said Dr. Oumair Aejaz was first reported by his wife in August of last year after she discovered he had been secretly video recording her, their two young children, and other female relatives inside their home.
Investigators later uncovered more videos showing people undressing at the Goldfish Swim School in Rochester Hills.
He allegedly used hidden cameras to record victims — ranging in age from 2 years old to grown adults — while they were nude, according to the sheriff’s office.
The Oakland County Prosecutor's Office announced Friday that Aejaz, 41, has entered no contest pleas to 31 counts of sexual misconduct across two separate cases.
By pleading no contest, a defendant does not admit guilt but waives the right to a trial and accepts the conviction and consequences.
In a statement, the Prosecutor's Office made clear that no plea deal was offered in this case.
“Thursday’s events confirm Oumair Aejaz’s guilt,” said Prosecutor Karen McDonald. “While we did not and would not offer this abuser any leniency, I’m grateful the plea ensures victims will not have to testify at a trial. Their bravery, and the good work of law enforcement, made sure Aejez will never again harm another victim.”
Among the more than two-dozen charges are four counts of child sexually abusive commercial activity, and two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. Those CSC charges alone carry a mandatory minimum of 25 years in prison per each count.
Aejaz is scheduled to be sentenced on Dec. 2 in Sixth Circuit Court.
Officials said an investigation is still ongoing into other alleged recordings by Aejaz at medical facilities in other counties. When the investigation is complete, Aejaz could face more charges in those jurisdictions.
In 2024, a class action lawsuit was filed against two Metro Detroit health systems and Aejaz in connection with those recordings.
Authorities have asked for any more potential victims to come forward.
