I have been able to solve the problem. I checked the drive with fsck and it seemed that a superblock of the drive was broken. Fsck needed a few hours to fix things, and now everything is working again.
So basically the Filesystem was all messed up, which caused not being able to delete stuff.
Thanks for your help people. This topic can be closed now.
