The three women were allegedly set upon by the group, leaving one woman with a broken nose and a mild traumatic brain injury.
The other two victims suffered bruising.
Police are appealing for public assistance to an assault on a bus which left three female victims with serious injuries. (Pictured is an image of one of the men who may be able to assist with enquiries)
