I have found a solution, seems like the repository is purged by special job contentStoreCleaner:

Cleaning up orphaned content (purge) | Alfresco Documentation

And it should take by default about 14 days to purge unused content.

Maybe this helps:

In Alfresco 5 you can set this parameter for reducing this protection:

system.content.orphanProtectDays=14

Also if you apply sys:temporary aspect before deleting you will bypass the thrascan.

Final hint: use better search.query() instead search.luceneSearch()
