Have you tried with: sudo apt-get purge cassandra? The message indicates that your user doesn't have privileges. – Rubén Pozo

From the error you get, it appears that your user is not a sudo'er. What is the output of groups?

Your question is how to remove cassandra. If you have the password of root (if the root account is enabled), type

su

Then type the password for root. Now you can delete cassandra via

apt-get remove cassandra

If you do not have the password for root, you need to find a way to get access to sudo (and change your question accordingly).
