As of December 2012, apps can only delete photos they created.

This deletion is done by simply calling a delete method on the resource ID. Using, for instance, a curl/file_get_contents on http://graph.facebook.com/[ID]?method=DELETE&access_token=[TOKEN] where [ID] is the photo id and [TOKEN] the access token for the user-application pair.
