Sounds like what prison guards and prisoners do to other prisoners in US prisons.

Honestly I don't believe that this is true.

Iran for all that it is vilified by the west is not prone to actions like that. Part of the reason for that is Islamic morality and the other reason is if the police want to torture/beat a confession out of someone they'll do it upfront and not get into any trouble for it.

I suspect that these activists have seen how the reports of 'mass rape' in Libya have outraged the west and are hoping for a similar effect. Unfortunately for them the west doesn't give a shit about male victims.
