Java wont uninstall on mac OS(Mojave)

i have followed this procedure as per documentation by java 

sudo rm -fr /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
sudo rm -fr /Library/PreferencePanes/JavaControlPanel.prefPane
sudo rm -fr ~/Library/Application\ Support/Oracle/Java

but still when i perform java -version in terminal 

java version "11.0.1" 2018-10-16 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.1+13-LTS)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.1+13-LTS, mixed mode)

when i try to remove jdk this comes up

rm -r ~/"Library/Application Support/Oracle/Java" 
rm: /Users/<>/Library/Application Support/Oracle/Java: No such file or directory

i am unable to locate java control panel in sys preferences(Even when i first installed java on machine it didnt show on up sys preferences), nor in finder library

unable to figure out what's the issue

Check the correct location of Java using the below command in the terminal 

/usr/libexec/java_home

and then delete the folder using sudo rm -rf
