Why should Apple have immediately reinstated the account? Remember, in all of this, we still have no proof that he doesn't actually control the second account. All we have is his claim that this account belongs to a relative and that he doesn't control it (and even if that's completely true, I think he still bears some responsibility for it since he set up the account and provided the hardware). The fact that Apple was willing to believe him and offer him a way to unlink his account was a gesture of good faith by Apple, nothing more.
