Instead of removing the stuff in front of the graphic, you can just select each item in turn and "send it to back." Evenually you'll be able to grab the unwanted graphic and remove it.

I have looked up help and couldn't find anything. A graphic exists in a context. On a page, the context is the page's border, so that the graphic is in a z-ordinate or list from front to back with everything else on that page. In an anchored frame, the graphic is in a front-to-back list with everything else in the anchored frame. Save a back up of the file. Ctrl-click each item that lies in front of the graphic item. Cut them to the clipboard. Click on the unwanted graphic and delete it. Select the context: in a page, click in the margin outside the text frame, in an anchored frame, Ctrl-click the border. It is important to select the context at this point because the x-y coordinates of the items on the clipboard are preserved and applied to position them in their original locations provided they are pasted back into the context whence they were cut. Now paste from the clipboard.
