#!/usr/bin/python                                                               

# Load the JSON module and use it to load your JSON file.                       
# I'm assuming that the JSON file contains a list of objects.                   
import json
obj  = json.load(open("file.json"))

# Iterate through the objects in the JSON and pop (remove)                      
# the obj once we find it.                                                      
for i in xrange(len(obj)):
    if obj[i]["ename"] == "mark":
        obj.pop(i)
        break

# Output the updated file with pretty JSON                                      
open("updated-file.json", "w").write(
    json.dumps(obj, sort_keys=True, indent=4, separators=(',', ': '))
