The victim believes the three offenders may possibly have been Turkish or Egyptian.
The first man is described as being in his 40s or 50, with short grey hair, a stocky build and wearing light coloured clothing.

The woman is described as being in her 40s to 50s, with very long black hair and a slim build. She was wearing green-coloured clothing.
