Removing .recycle from shell does not freed up space

[sbence]

I had a DATA pool shared by SMB and "Export Recycle Bin" turned on. I created a dataset named Docs inside the DATA pool and moved many GB of data form mnt/DATA/ to mnt/DATA/Docs. This resulted that all the moved data copied to the mnt/DATA/.recycle as well, as it should be I guess. So I wanted to remove the copies from there so I used Shell in FreeNAS UI with input:

cd mnt/DATA/
rm -r .recycle

This removed the whole mnt/DATA/.recycle folder but did not reed up any space.
What can I do to get back that space?
Thank you for your answer!

Do you have snapshots active on that dataset? If so the data is still in the snapshots.

Yes, I do have. Somehow I forgot about that. I will look into it, I hope it solves it. Thanks!
