Sendbird Remove Member from a Channel or group

I am using Sendbird SDK for a chat in my application following the steps through official documentation. Everything is working fine but recently I wanted to implement a functionality in which I wanted to give access to admin to remove a member from the group. But, while going through the official documentation, I came to know there is no such functionality or method provided in SendBird. So, is there any workaround or better way to do the same.

Some time has passed since this question was posted, but here are the official guides for the ban functionality.

Group Channel

if (groupChannel.getMyRole() == Member.Role.OPERATOR) {
    groupChannel.banUser(USER, DESCRIPTION, SECONDS, new GroupChannel.GroupChannelBanHandler() {
        @Override
        public void onResult(SendBirdException e) {
            if (e != null) {    // Error.
                return;
            }

            // TODO: Custom implementation for what should be done after banning.
        }
    });
}

Open Channel

if (openChannel.isOperator(SendBird.getCurrentUser())) {
    openChannel.banUser(USER, SECONDS, new OpenChannel.OpenChannelBanHandler() {
        @Override
        public void onResult(SendBirdException e) {
            if (e != null) {    // Error.
                return;
            }

            // TODO: Custom implementation for what to do after banning.
        }
    });
}

Please keep in mind that an user should be an operator to ban or unban a user.
