Well, all the (valuable) aluminum items are missing, so they may have been removed.
But do the usual methods of scrapping such a piece produce damage like the Reunion flaperon shows? The torn-off trailing edge and the torn-out hinges are easy to visualize as a result of ditching with the flaperon down.

There must be a few photos of deliberately scrapped flaps or flaperons around.
