Is the hand brake cable free on the side that the brake is stuck on ? It should move free once removed but what happens is the steel wire starts to brake and gets jammed inside the casing. Easyier to the whole cable but you might be able town seize it.

I have loosened the adjuster all the way off, but i was thinking something like this but they are new shoes and i checked the handbrake cables and had them off but i need to check again i think,
is it possible the handbrake lever on the shoes is stuck even thogh they are new shoes?
