Not removed but hidden. You can turn on showdead in your profile to see them.

My point was more that, at least in this case, it looks like a post was hidden without any moderator intervention.

If this is indeed what happened, it seems like a bad thing that it's even possible. Since many, perhaps most people probably don't have showdead enabled, it means that the 'flag' option is effectively a mega-downvote.
