Room delete API unable to kick users

[arindampaul1993]

Description

The room delete API is not kicking out all users from the room, inspite of getting a correct response that all users will kicked out. The leave event is not reaching the users, who are logged in via element web

Steps to reproduce

• login to element web
• join a room
• use a different login to join the same room
• call the room delete API DELETE /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>
• use the request payload as {"purge" : True, "block" : True}
• for any one of the user the leave event does not get propagated in the sync response, on refresh the user leaves the room

so if the users in the room don't refresh the browser they would be still in the room and can send messages that will be saved in the db?
