Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his virtual summit with Denmark's PM Mette Frederiksen called for diversification of global supply chain, and without taking China's name highlighted how risky it has been to be dependent&nbsp;on a "single source".

He said, "COVID-19 has shown us, that global supply chain can't be dependent on a single source and it has been risky". Adding, "We are working with Australia and Japan for diversification of the supply chain. Other like-minded nations can join us"

Indian PM said, "The events of the past few months have made it clear that for like-minded countries like us, who share a rules-based, transparent, humanitarian and democratic value-system need to work together".

On COVID crisis, he called for collaboration in the like-minded country and said India will leverage its pharmaceutical advantage for the benefit of the world.

Denmark's PM Mette Frederiksen said, "the summit is a milestone for our bilateral relations, on an important and forward-looking agreement on the green strategic partnership".

Dutch police announced Tuesday that they arrested six men after discovering ''torture chambers'' and cells inside shipping containers being used as a makeshift prison.

The items found the shipping containers include&nbsp;dentist chairs,&nbsp;handcuffs, and other tools such as hedge cutters, pliers and&nbsp;scalpels&nbsp;"likely intended to torture victims or at least put them under pressure".

They were&nbsp;located in a warehouse in Wouwse Plantage, a small village in the southwestern part of the Netherlands, close to the border with Belgium. &nbsp;

The police were tipped by messages and photos from EncroChat, which is an&nbsp;encrypted platform where users could speak privately between specially-designed handsets.

The platform, which was recently decoded by French police, is used by criminals to communicate.

The kidnappers were apparently quite meticulous planners, with several ''teams'' preparing to snatch up their victims and one ''observation team.''

They used to refer to the warehouse as ''treatment room'' and ''ebi'', a reference to the top Dutch police.

The authorities conducted the raid, codenamed 26Lemont, on June 22. In the investigation, they seized&nbsp;dozens of firearms, more than 8,000 kilograms of cocaine and 1,200 kilograms of crystal meth, as well as the dismantled&nbsp;19 synthetic drug labs.
