What line signalling are you using? 

I'm assuming you are reffering to a phone line coming from the PSTN, is
it analog, or is it digital? 

Have you tried soft hangup on it?

Have you tried to place a timout on it, so asterisk finally times out
the call?

Maybe you would like to place a loop counter on the number of times the
call makes it through the timeout extension, and after some threshold,
you issue a hangup on the call.
