Modifying images by removing people from them varies in ruling depending on the intention. If the intention is deception or fraud, then it is forbidden. However, if it is for a legitimate interest, such as removing images of living beings or images of nudes and those who display their adornments, or for permissible purposes, then there is no objection to it.
