Locking problem with Nissan Micra

My friend has a 2004 Nissan Micra with a locking problem. Whhe car has been locked using the keys/remote, you can walk around to the boot and press the "button" on the handle and the car is unlocked. Is this a fault or is there a way of disabling this "button"?

Is there also a keylock? If so, does that still leave the hatch lock unlocked. I'd guess at an earthing fault to the hatch lock. I've had this problem before with a borrowed Mazda 2.
