Sounds like you used restricted groups to ensure that particular domain
user account was a member of the local administrators group. Removing the
computer from the OU is not going to cause the user account to be removed -
you will have to remove it manually.
Restricted groups enforce membership - you can set it so that only certain
users are members of a particular group or so that a particular group is
added as a member of other groups. It doesn't "undo" the addition of the
user account to the group if you remove the computer from the OU where the
policy enforcing this setting is applied.

| Hi,
| I have added the domain user to local administrator group
| of all the PCs coming under one OU with the help of
| restricted groups. but now I have moved that PC from that
| OU. But still that user is in the administrator group of
| those PCs. Why still that user is having admin previleges
| even though that user is no more in that OU. Please any of
| you could address this issue?.
