Right-click on the file(s) and click the TortoiseHg --> Remove Files... and then confirm the dialog. Commit to save the change to your local repository. Note that this will delete the file from disk and from Mercurial.

If you'd like to remove a file from Mercurial but keep the file on disk, you can click TortoiseHg --> Forget Files.... Then you may want to add the file to your .hgignore list (you can do this graphically through the Commit or View File Status dialogs) so that you don't add it accidentally in the future. Then commit.
