Oddly there are two cases (that I know of) in the last 20 years of faked crystallographic results turning into mass retractions. Once in the US and once in China. https://retractionwatch.com/2016/01/04/nature-retracts-paper-six-years-after-it-was-flagged-for-fraud/ … https://retractionwatch.com/2011/02/28/crystal-myth-11-more-retractions-from-crystallography-journal-after-2010-fakery/ …

I think that speaks to the validity of the claim. It's very difficult to fake crystallographic data because so many parameters must be self-consistent. The likelihood that you observe such a dataset by chance (or design) is vanishingly small.
