push down hard on rear seat while operating the lock?

Fill lock cylinder with silicone and try the above?

You have jammed up the lock mechanism; the pressure on the lock is preventing the catch opening.
Do as reelrazor states and don't jam shoes under the pillion seat in future. :whistle

Your quandry is the best one we have heard on here for quite a while. :rofl:
