LUCKNOW: Aamir, the accused in Ambedkar Nagar multiple murders, had a disturbing and violent criminal history, which 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 Nov 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 IPC. Being a minor at that time, Aamir was produced before the Juvenile Justice Board, which on Dec 6, 2024, sentenced him to two years and 10 months of simple imprisonment along with a fine of Rs 1,500. Despite this, Amir’s criminal activities escalated after his release. On Aug 19, 2024, he allegedly raped a 55year-old Dalit woman and attempted to strangulate her. He was booked under Sections of the BNS and the SC/ST Act. The case is under trial in a Pocso court.On Aug 21, 2024, Aamir had 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 police—reflects a deeply entrenched criminal psyche. Officials believe Amir’s escalating brutality and lack of remorse point to a dangerous and unstable personality, making him a significant threat to public safety.Ambedkar Nagar SP, Prachi Singh, said Aamir was 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.
