setfacl -x doesn't shows it removed the ACL

Hi,
My directory had ACL for user XYZ and I wanted to removethe ACL's X had.
So, I issued the command
after removing when i list the files, it still shows with (+) i.e it still contain ACL(??)

drwxr-xr-x+ 25 inuser USR 4.0K Jul 29 08:28 TgtFiles

also, the getfacl for the above dir, gives
# file: TgtFiles
# owner: inuser
# group: USR
user::rwx
group::r-x
mask::r-x
other::r-x

Though it removes the ACL , when I list the dir / file, it shows (+) .

Any reasons ?

thanks
