After deleting the file forcibly, there is noway you can get this on your own(no roolback as such). But as its been a tradition of taking backup of certain file systems daily and fortunately if your file is part of one of those file systems which have been backed up, you can ask unix people to restore the file (file system).

If they are old files, they will be in snapshot directory Goto the directory, at which files were deleted and do cd .snapshot.
Files will be present according to the dates in the respective folders like nightly.1.0, nightly2.0, hourly1.0, move to the directories to locate the files and copy them to required location.
