Aurora chiropractor accused of sexually abusing young patients faces more charges

An Aurora chiropractor charged last month with sexually abusing two teenage patients is now facing 13 more charges of sexual abuse and assault of three additional victims.

Murtaza Hameed, 46, was arraigned Tuesday on 13 felony and six misdemeanor counts involving three more victims, according to a news release from the DuPage County state’s attorney’s office. Hameed had already been charged with sexually abusing two teenage patients. On Jan. 11, authorities say a 17-year-old boy was receiving treatment at Hameed’s office when he was allegedly abused. Officials say there was a similar incident in 2016 involving a 16-year-old boy.
