The Calangute Police have clarified that the tourists had no links to the Bishnoi gang.
Both individuals were under the influence of alcohol at the time and have no prior criminal history.
Officers reported being grabbed and assaulted inside the police vehicle during the transfer to the station, though no serious injuries were sustained.
