It went into a crappy online paid for journal that just needs to bulk out its content. There are loads of them, that will pretend to peer review - in reality it's just proof reading - before publication.
Then the uni issued a standard press release, probably boiler plate with 'insert name here' fields, because it's great to have loads of punished articles by researchers.
This probably happens hundreds of times a week, due entirely to the current fashion of judging researchers blindly by the number of articles they've had published.
This one just happened to blow up in their faces!
