Six men were arrested after police discovered what they described as an “underworld prison and torture chamber” in a warehouse in Wouwse Plantage in Noord-Brabant on June 22.

Dutch Police said they found “seven shipping containers converted into cells and torture chambers.”

Inside were a dentist chair and handcuffs, as well as a chemical toilet, police clothing, and bags of items “believed to be used to torture or at least pressure victims.”

Police also said cells had a camera mounted in the corner to “keep a clear view of the situation.”

The suspects were arrested following a Franco-Dutch operation, which allowed police to read “more than 20 million chat messages from criminals.”
