If you are using AFNetworking3.0 through cocoapods, then use below code by creating category for UIImageView.

#import 
#import 
#import 

+ (void)clearImageCacheForURL:(NSURL *)url {
    NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
    [request addValue:@"image/*" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Accept"];
    id  imageCache = [[self class] sharedImageDownloader].imageCache;
    UIImage *cachedImage = [imageCache imageforRequest:request withAdditionalIdentifier:nil];
    if (cachedImage) {
        [self clearCached:imageCache Request:request];
    }
}

+ (void)clearCached:(AFAutoPurgingImageCache *)imageCache Request:(NSURLRequest *)request {
    if (request) {
        [imageCache removeImageforRequest:request withAdditionalIdentifier:nil];
    }
}
