It's weird, The table was part of a KS "Index" which I deleted in the last week. I do not know how did it come back. I have deleted it again and run repair on all the nodes on the cluster and now it seems ok.

It sort of looks like it tried to delete a secondary in CF that was defined in the system KS. Turn the logging up to DEBUG and see what happens. Hope that helps.
