Unable to re-create user after deleting

#1

We have a business requirement where we need to delete a user entity, and re-create it again in KeyCloak.
This is the code to remove the user.

UserModel user = session.users().getUserByEmail(email,session.getContext().getRealm());
session.users().removeUser(session.getContext().getRealm(), user);

And then create:

UsersResource usersRessource = realmResource.users();
 UserRepresentation user = new UserRepresentation();
//populate user representation object here
...
Response response = usersRessource.create(user);

At this point we get an exception:

Is it because we are using the UserModel in the session to delete, but using the Realm UserResource to create?
