LUCKNOW: Aamir, the prime accused in the Ambedkar Nagar multiple murders, has a disturbing and violent criminal history that police describe as indicative of a “psychopathic mindset,” marked by brutality, repeated offences, and a complete disregard for human lives.
Police records reveal that on November 11, 2021, Aamir, along with three associates, had murdered a man. A case was registered under Sections 302 (murder) and 201 (causing disappearance of evidence) of the Indian Penal Code. Being a minor at that time, Aamir was produced before the Juvenile Justice Board, which on December 6, 2024, sentenced him to two years and 10 months of simple imprisonment along with a fine of Rs 1,500. Despite this, Aamir’s criminal activities escalated after his release.
On August 19, 2024, he allegedly raped a 55-year-old Dalit woman and attempted to strangle her. He was booked under sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. The case is currently under trial in a Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) court.
On August 21, 2024, Aamir allegedly opened fire at a police team. In retaliatory action, he sustained a bullet injury in the leg. A separate case was registered under the Arms Act and BNS provisions. Police say his pattern of crimes—including murder, sexual violence against a Dalit woman, and armed confrontation with law enforcement—reflects a deeply entrenched criminal psyche.
Officials believe that Aamir’s escalating brutality and lack of remorse point to a dangerous and unstable personality, making him a significant threat to public safety. Ambedkar Nagar Superintendent of Police, Prachi Singh, stated that Aamir is a ‘psychopath.’ “We checked the records and found that he had raped the woman just because she had abused him and had murdered the man following a fallout over road rage,” the SP added.
