Interesting....

Some ideas:

  *  maybe the "owner" of "deleteFiles" is broken. Check its ownership.
     "deleteFiles" permissions are the intersection of its owner's
     permissions and the current user's permissions.

  *  relevant is the "Delete objects" permission on the container
     and not the object to be deleted
