error: destroy link_to with two nested namespaces in rails

i have problem to build the 'link_to' to action "destroy".

I have two nested routes in 'Routes.rb':

  namespace :admin do
    namespace :security do
      resources :users
    end
  end

'rake routes' prints:

  DELETE /admin/security/users/:id(.:format)               admin/security/users#destroy

the controller is: 

  class Admin::Security::UsersController < ApplicationController
    def destroy
      ...
    end
    ...

How to build the link_to with http veb 'delete'?

I unsuccessful tried:

  <%= link_to 'destroy', user, method: :delete %>
  <%= link_to 'destroy', {:controller => "admin/security/users", :action => "destroy", :id =>       user.id}, method: :delete %>
  <%= link_to 'destroy', admin_security_users_path(user), method: :delete %>
  <%= link_to 'destroy', admin_security_user_destroy_path(user), method: :delete %>

You could try passing only the action and resources and leave the rest up to rails:

UPDATE You should use namespaces names as a parameter to url_for 

<%= link_to 'destroy', ([:destroy, :admin, :security, user]),  method: :delete %>

Use this

<%= link_to 'destroy', admin_security_user_path(user), method: :delete %>

use admin_security_user_path and not admin_security_users_path

NOTE: DELETE is performed on single object of model.
See the Official Rails Routing Documentation.
