AWS auto scaling grroup remove instance from standby without putting in InService

Question

I kept a faulty ec2 instance to standby in ASG, now want to remove it, without bringing it into InService state.

Is there a way where I can remove the instance directly without bringing instance to InService.

AFAIK, The instance state transition must go through InService stage and you return the instance to service by exiting the standby state.
