Dear Sanjib,

Read about the CaDA approach (e.g. from the page you got the files from and
references mentioned there) and you'll see that the whole point of the
approach is to have dummy atoms around the zinc (more or less representing
d-orbitals).
You certainly DON'T want to remove the dummy atoms.
