how to read deleted files in adls

We have soft delete enabled in adls for 3 days, And we have manually deleted some checkpoint files size 3 tb approx. Each file is just couple of bytes like 30 b, 40 b. The deleted file size is increasing day by day even after couple of days. Suppose I deleted on 10th Nov, today its 11th Nov and its showing deleted time as of today in Azure Storage Explorer. 

- How is this deletion working here? 

- Is there any way I can read those deleted files or get count of those deleted files from databricks?
