In a high-security wing of Manhattan's Metropolitan Correctional Center, an 
unknown number of men with Middle Eastern names are being held in solitary 
confinement on the ninth floor, locked in 8- by 10-foot cells with little 
more than cots, thin blankets and, if they request it, copies of the Koran. 
Every two hours, guards roust them to conduct a head count.
