Hello, I am working on a hacked wordpress site. and i have seen many malicious content inside. i have deleted most of those files except one. i can not delete that root file index.php or even can not edit that. can not change the file permission too. changing file permission, bring back the previous permission.
what should i do?
Thank you

@bobbyiliev Thank you. We didn’t get any error any time so it might be recreated after it is deleted. The .htaccess file can be deleted but is being recreated as a hidden file within 3 or 4 seconds.

@bobbyiliev the .htaccess file now been deleted but the index.php is still there. and again the .htaccess come with the following rules.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\/(benzylpenicillin)\/([0-9]+)_([0-9]+)\/(.*)$ ?benzylpenicillin$4=$3&%{QUERY_STRING}[L]
</IfModule>
