You can remove a roster item even if the subscription is pending or the
item is no longer available on the network.

What happens if you send the following XML at the console?

<iq type="set" id="foo">
 <query xmlns="jabber:iq:roster">
   <item jid="icq.jabber.ccc.de/registered" subscription="remove" />
  </query>
</iq>
