Police have arrested three men in their twenties for interrogation after two 20 year old fans were found on the festival grounds with serious abdominal injuries.
In an unrelated incident a young man collapsed and died on his way back from the concert stage to the campsite. The cause of death is still unknown. The Guardian reports that in a third incident a woman was sexually assaulted near the bus parking area and police were still looking for eye witnesses.
A police detective explained about the attack on the two men: “This has been a particularly disturbing incident where two men have sustained very serious injuries. This was the time when the majority of campers were making their way back to the campsite following the closure of the arena entertainment.
“It’s possible some campers may have captured vital images of the incident on cameras or mobile phones, and a number of others will have witnessed the assault.
“I would urge anyone who witnessed these incidents or anyone who may have photographs or footage to get in touch with us.” Police said three men were helping with inquiries.
According to local police 64 arrests were made over the weekend , up from 59 last year.
A fan at the festival criticised the standard of security. “Security should be better, whether they employ more staff, or perhaps just better staff who are willing to help or look after festival goers,” he said.
Eminem and Kasabian headlined the festival which drew around 85 thousand fans each day.
T in the Park has not responded to the criticisms.
