wrongly flagged

I believe a player was wrongly marked as a cheater just a couple of minutes ago. I reported that via report form, but sorry I do not believe that this will be reviewed without some sort of public discussion:

He even blunders.
I watched like 10 of his games, he makes like 50% of his moves within second, and no cheater can do that unless he is a bot, - they can't be that common, he did not look like one, and played like a human, repeating his favorite openings etc.
I like to watch good players playing and this is really disappointing that he got banned so hastily while some cheaters make it to first place and stand there for a week before they finally get removed.
Actually I know why he was banned - I thought he must be cheater too by watching his stat, but then there was nothing in games to indicate that. In this site there are probably like 3 or 4 GMs, while there are about 1600 GMs in the world:

You can see there are some self identified NMs in Top10 (i.e. - it does not consist of GMs/IMs, and won't if you continue like this), this site is quite popular so it should not be a surprise that an IM or GM will sometimes venture here and almost no one will be able to win them
A friend of mine was marked as cheater and he is sure he is not cheating, what can he do in order to come to the game?
his name is jacoob fernazary
