How do you remove 'following' friends on twitter?

[Benny]

How do you remove friends on twitter under the 'following' section? I know that to remove their messages you simply click on the 'remove' link to the right; however, I find it really annoying that their name, picture and status remains. Is there any way to delete them? If not, I think I'm going to delete my account altogether. Honestly, I don't really see the point. Thanks.

You click on "following" the there's a remove tab on the right side... that should remove them completely
