The accused Aamir, whose criminal history is marked by extreme violence and repeated offenses, has been described by police as having a psychopathic mindset, showing complete disregard for human lives. According to police records, on November 11, 2021, Aamir, along with three accomplices, murdered a man. A case was registered under Sections 302 (murder) and 201 (causing disappearance of evidence) of the Indian Penal Code. At the time, being a minor, he was produced before the Juvenile Justice Board, which sentenced him on December 6, 2024, to two years and ten months of simple imprisonment along with a fine of Rs 1,500.
Escalation of Crimes
After his release, Aamir's criminal activities escalated further. On August 19, 2024, he allegedly raped a 55-year-old Dalit woman and attempted to strangle her. He was booked under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. The case is currently under trial in a POCSO court. Just two days later, on August 21, 2024, Aamir allegedly opened fire at a police team. In retaliatory action, he sustained a bullet injury in his leg. A separate case was registered under the Arms Act and BNS provisions.
Psychopathic Traits Identified
Investigators note that his pattern of crimes, including murder, sexual violence against a Dalit woman, and armed confrontation with police, reflects a deeply entrenched criminal psyche. Officials believe 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, “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.”
Expert Analysis
Clinical psychologist Neetika Dixit commented on the case, saying, “The escalation of violence from murder to sexual assault and then an armed attack on police suggests increasing boldness and reduced inhibition. Repeated involvement in serious offenses despite prior punishment may indicate diminished remorse or accountability. The close timing of these incidents points to impulsivity and poor behavioral control, while targeting a vulnerable victim, such as an elderly Dalit woman, reflects dominance-driven aggression.” She added that such patterns may be consistent with strong antisocial or psychopathic traits, though a formal diagnosis would require detailed clinical evaluation.
