But article suggest that antimatter attracts antimatter, but repulses "normal" matter and that is the situation that should be detectable and I am talking about.
Where there is matter present, anti-matter would be repelled. There is always matter present in space .. even in voids.

Photons aren't attracted to anything !
A photon's path is bent due to curvature of spacetime.
