I've completed one field research that has Sableye as a reward and when I throw my first Pokeball, it ran away.
If I'm not mistaken I got Sableye as a reward after I used 7 charged super effective moves at gym battle.
I thought a Pokemon that we tried to capture from field research as a reward can't run away.
So, is it true that Pokemon from field research also can run away?

I believe this is rather a visual glitch, meaning you actually caught the Pokemon and should find it by filtering to recently caught. Or you caught the Pokemon whilst travelling faster than the speed cap/during a soft ban. If it's the latter you should be able to encounter the Pokemon again once you've returned to a normal state.
