This is the moment a group of laughing thugs attacked a young woman, knocking her unconscious, and poured drink over her during a sickening attack on board a night bus.
The 22-year-old victim was sitting with a friend on the back seat of the bus when a group of young men boarded and moved to where she was sitting.
After criticising her dress, one of the gang poured a can of drink over the woman's head and pulled her hair as the bus travelled towards Clapham in south London.

The woman was already on the route 344 bus heading through Lambeth in the early hours of the morning when the men, who she did not know got on and approached her.
Words were exchanged between the gang and their victim, before one man launched at her, dousing her in fizzy drink and yanking her hair.
She got up from her seat, but was pushed and then kicked in the stomach, as the gang laughed at her.
In the force of the blow, the woman fell to the floor of the bus and knocked unconscious, while the men got off the bus and walked away.

Police have today released CCTV footage of the attack, which took place on August 29, as officers hunted down the thugs
Paramedics were called the scene and the woman was taken to St Thomas' Hospital with a head injury. She was treated and discharged a few hours later.
Police released CCTV footage of the August 29 attack as part of their attempts to track the gang down.
Among the suspects was a man described as being around 20 years old, and was wearing a black T-shirt with a patterned pocket on the chest, dark trousers and a baseball cap worn back to front.
A Met Police spokesman said he was a light-skinned black man of slim build, and that the other four men in the group were also black.

Many of the other young men laughed as the woman was attacked

With the woman still lying on the floor, the suspects left the bus
One of the men was sitting on the lap of another for some of their time on the bus.
Detective Constable Kyla Mulley, Lambeth CID, said: 'This was a shocking attack on a young woman, prompted by nothing more than a brief exchange of words.
'It is vital we track down this man and hold him to account for his behaviour.
'I am also keen to speak with other members of the group, who would be able to assist the investigation.'
