Reardoor will not open

Strangely, there is no lever on the inside of the door!   I have exposed the lock mechanism from the inside and pulled/pushed the lever(s) that I can reach (not easy for an old tubby guy).  No luck so far.  Before I cut open the inside door around the lock, can anyone give advice on how to open this stuck door mechanism?  Thanks.

ps: I've removed and repaired 3 of the 4 regular side door locks - they all needed new little compression springs to get things working again...

ok sure ,it be illegal to have read hatch lever in side car,   imagine kids there, oops.  in fact most these cars have this hidden, 2 rear door kids lock....


that is wrong is the latch has a rusted lever in the lock if you look there are 2 active levers , one for key and one for lever, the  lever is rusted there.
only fiix is :
1: lost of rust penetrating oil.
2: brute force from, inside car, door cards off , and at the toggle arm that goes to the outlide lever, attack only the toggle, or use heat on it with heat gut first but some plactic there will melt.
so, heat may be a bad idea here.

you are right the most hard lock is here, hands down.
find a shop and get them to free it up?
