Detective Constable Caroline Thomas said: 'The offenders then ransacked the man's property, stealing cash, jewellery and cigarettes.

'At this time, we don't have a description of those involved as the victim has understandably been left incredibly traumatised by what happened.

'This was an incredibly violent assault which left the victim with sustained, extensive bruising to his face and body.
