          Any URL that you want to remove from a particular TLD needs to be done in the specific TLD Webmaster Tools property.

            Perfect thanks Michael, if I run 3 top level domains (international) will I need to submit the url 3 times in this case?

              If the page ia a 404 not found it will sometime soon disappear from the index.  You can force this immediately by going into Webmaster Tools >> Google Index >> Remove URLs >> enter URL >> select 'Remove page....'
