I created a file with the same name as the OP and tried to delete it with every trick in the book. No luck! The problem is the "NUL" character at the begining which is a 3 byte character and nothing seems to work for that. I found a website which claims that this is a Mac OS 10.11.X only problem. Now I'm also stuck with that file... But in the next few days I will do a complete new install of 10.12.X and so I'm not concerned much, yet!
But I'm glad if someone is able to find a solution!

gvfs-trash
GVFS-TRASH(1) User Commands GVFS-TRASH(1)
NAME
gvfs-trash - Move files or directories to the trash
SYNOPSIS
gvfs-trash [OPTION...] [LOCATION...]
DESCRIPTION
gvfs-trash sends files or directories to the "Trashcan". This can be a different folder depending on where the file is located, and not all
file systems support this concept. In the common case that the file lives inside a users home directory, the trash folder is
$XDG_DATA_HOME/Trash.
Note that moving files to the trash does not free up space on the file system until the "Trashcan" is emptied. If you are interested in
deleting a file irreversibly, see gvfs-rm.
Inspecting and emptying the "Trashcan" is normally supported by graphical file managers such as nautilus, but you can also see the trash
with the command gvfs-ls trash://.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
-h, --help
Prints a short help text and exits.
-f, --force
Ignore nonexistent and non-deletable files.
--empty
Empty the trash.
EXIT STATUS
On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
