WARNINGS
Only the super-user can unlink a directory, in which case the
files it contains are lost. The files can, however, be recovered from
the file system's
lost+found

fsck.
If you have write permission on the directory in which
filename
resides,
unlink
removes that file without warning, regardless of its ownership.
