Default 2011 CRV trunk door not closing

Hi all.
I've got some issues with my trunk door not closing. I don't think there is anything wrong with the mechanism but it looks like the latch is stuck in the locked position which prevents the door from closing.
I've tried unlocking the car using both the keys I have, and from the inside but it still won't unlock.
It's like this because I was trying to fix a different issue and took a screwdriver to the latch (not realising what I was doing) and locked it manually.
Thanks!

While using a key to turn it to the unlock position, use a screwdriver to pry the latch back open.

Thanks for the suggestion. There is no key lock for the back door. I tried using the key remote unlock while prying but still no luck.
