The system administrator needs to do it or, if you have the proper access you can change the file permissions.

As root or owner of those files do

rm -rf recup_dir*

Since you had to ask, you should be very careful with rm, especially when followed by -rf.

You can't. rm does not have an 'undo'.

See 'man rm'

[benicio]

were those files removed permanently?

thanks.

Rm removes files, it doesn't move them to a trash bin for later removal. That is not to say that photorec can't recover them again. Until the filesystem blocks are reallocated for another file, there is a chance of recovering them.
