You should try this solution for amove and delete the image.

Pass file directory path inside deleteRecursive(fileOrDirectory) and you can delete multiple and the single image from file or directory.

public void deleteRecursive(File fileOrDirectory) {
    if (!fileOrDirectory.isDirectory()) return;
    File[] childFiles = fileOrDirectory.listFiles();
    if (childFiles == null) return;
    if (childFiles.length == 0) {
        fileOrDirectory.delete();
    } else {
        for (File childFile : childFiles) {
            deleteRecursive(childFile);
            DeleteAndScanFile(MainActivity.this, childFile.getPath(), childFile);
        }
    }


}

private void DeleteAndScanFile(final Context context, String path,
                               final File fi) {
    String fpath = path.substring(path.lastIndexOf("/") + 1);
    try {
        MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(context, new String[]{Environment
                        .getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()
                        + "/abc/"
                        + fpath.toString()}, null,
                new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() {
                    public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
                        if (uri != null) {
                            context.getContentResolver().delete(uri, null,
                                    null);
                        }
                        fi.delete();
                    }
                });
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

}
