The couple, suffered the brutal fate in the course of a visit to India.
A report identified the major victim of the sexual assault as a Spanish travel influencer who was on the trip with her husband.
The “three hours of hell” attack was perpetrated by a gang of seven men who allegedly caught up with Fernanda Gonzalez, 28, who has over 300,000 Instagram followers and her husband, 63 year old Vicente.
The couple had been travelling around the world in motorcycle and documenting their travels.
They however had a different and bitter encounter last year in Dumka district, Jharkhand state of India
They were camping a night en route to Nepal when the 3 hours of hell began to build.
A group of men had discovered their tent after dark and attacked them, targeting the lady for sexual gratification.
While the seven raped Femanda, Vicente was beaten, tied up, and forced to watch the assault.
“They put a knife to my neck and told me they were going to kill me,” Vicente said in a video recorded outside a local hospital. “Fernanda was raped seven of them, seven men.”
Footage posted to their social media showed Fernanda’s bruised and swollen face as she described the ordeal. “Something has happened to us that we would not wish on anyone,” she wrote in one caption.
“They beat us and robbed us, but what they really wanted was to rape me.
“My face looks like this, but it’s not what hurts me the most. Thank God we are alive.”
Recalling other details of the 3 hours of hell, beginning from from 8 p.m till 11 p.m, she said:
“They hit me with a helmet several times, kicked me, and assaulted me with stones,” he said. “I thought Fernanda was dead, but when I saw her alive in the bushes, I felt a joy I can’t even describe.”

It was later that trying to piece details of the attack together, they realised they had earlier encountered two of the attackers.
In fact, one had actually approached Fernanda and took some peanuts she was eating without permission.
The mistake of the couple, was believing the area was safe and setting up a camp there.
The consoling side of the report however, is that three persons allegedly connected with the attack have been arrested.
“We have formed a team to hunt the remaining suspects,” reports quote senior police officer Pitamber Singh Kherwar as saying even as Dumka’s deputy commissioner, Anjaneyulu Dodde, confirmed that the couple received one million rupees in compensation and that a “thorough investigation” was underway.
