Nematooth,
I can only tell you, based from my own experience (USA), Perhaps its different in the some other neck of the woods
If you got paid, you no longer own the content nor the source files. By accepting the money you pay for services rendered and all resources and key object are then property of the client.
The only exception is that if you had a contract that states that the ONLY deliverable is the, lets says, compiled version.
Without that, the client, is allowed to goof up your work as much as they like.
The bright side is that hopefully they learned their lesson and value you as a key resource. Look into appling a pricing structure for your future deliverables and perhaps even allow for scoping of maintenance agreements.
It sucks when a good client goes naughty.
