Don’t say whether they are justified or not. You have to prove to Amazon that they made a mistake or, in the case of your mistake, that you corrected it.

Mostly it’s about a POA (Plan of Action). In the POA, you describe the reason for the block and what steps you have taken to prevent this error from happening again. Take enough print screens.
In case Amazon requires documents to unblock your account, always read the instructions for these documents properly. Never upload another document. Remember that these documents must be in a language that Amazon knows. That is, in the language in which Amazon has language mutations. The easiest for him is English on the American Amazon. For the European Amazon, English, German, French or Spanish are suitable.
