Original review summary

The review says Sri Lanka Police and Bandaranaike International Airport confirmed they had issued no such warning and had no report of a related incident. It traces the keychain rumor to South Africa in 2008 and says the image in the posts came from a product advertisement, not a police investigation.[S1]
