On the results page when I Google "e-luminate", the 3rd and 4th link seems to point to specific directory deep within the folders which stores the images. How can I get rid of these 2 results from Google search results? How can I get Google to de-index it?

I checked on the server and the folders did not seem different from other folders but these 2 paths seems to get indexed by Google.

Thank you.
