A family living in isolation on a farm in the Netherlands have been discovered by police after nine years.
The seven adults are receiving medical treatment after police acted on a tip-off and found them locked away in a secret room on the premises, officials said on Tuesday.
Mayor Roger de Groot said six young adults, aged 18 to 25, and their ailing father were found near Ruinerwold - 130km (80 miles) northeast of Amsterdam.
They had apparently not been in contact with the outside world for nine years.
The small property also appeared to be ringed by a fence and largely obscured by trees
Mr de Groot said a 58-year-old man, who is not the father of the children, was arrested at the farm. His role was unclear.
