Only driving side door lock doesn’t unlock?

Dear sirs,

I cannot pull the lock rod up by hand or turn left from the key.

Incident> I locked the driving side lock by hand when I was inside the car and since then it doesn’t unlock.

I noticed there is no noise from the driving side door like other doors when locking.


Back ground>When I brought the car one year a go only the driving side door lock rod didn't repose to the remote. But alarm activates. Because of this I used the key to lock or unlock the car.

Please tell me how to open the door. I was trying to open the door lock by putting an iron stick by top removing in and out beading. But seems to be all sealed.

Many thanks
