I don't think it is entirely coincidental that 1210 is the only shown 
user_id with a modified_on value that is in proximity to the delete 
error. My suspicion is that actions are not happening in the exact order 
you think they are. I would think that combining DELETE FROM 
rel_group_user; and DELETE FROM public.access_user; in a single 
transaction would be a good start to fixing this.

At what point in the process?
