If contact during a dead ball is not flagrant or intentional, it should be ignored. If it is flagrant or intentional, it becomes a technical foul.

If he called a personal, it was incorrect since it was during a dead ball. If he called a technical, it was incorrect because it was neither flagrant nor intentional.

Double foul or technical?
We judge the time lapse between the two acts:

very short time (pure judgement) ---> Double foul

a little longer than a very short time (pure judgement) ---> Technical foul

Either way the offensive player should be punished if the contact was, in fact, sufficient.
