Don't grind the nipple off because the pin can slide through that way, drill a 3mm hole in that bump central to the pin and tap the pin out from the bump side in the direction it ought to come out, after soaking in penetrating fluid. A 3mm hole gives enough of a shoulder to stop the pin coming out of the caliper the wrong way, but it's big enough to get a parellel pin punch in.
