He attended a local hospital where he received treatment for numerous cuts and bruises to his face, arms and body.

The incident happened in the Fenners Marsh area of the town at around 8.05pm on Saturday, June 18.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Julia Dell, of Kent Police, said: "We believe the men in the CCTV image may be able to assist us with our enquiries into this unprovoked attack.

"Whilst the image is slightly blurry and only one of the men’s faces can be seen, we are hopeful they may still be recognisable from their clothing and to people who know them."
