To be removed from a group DM in Slack, the remaining members must create a new group chat without you or a private channel. If this is not an option, here are some steps you can take to hide the group and stop receiving notifications from it.
In the sidebar menu, right-click on the group DM you want to leave
Click "Mute conversation"
You will no longer receive notifications from this group DM
Right-click on the name again
Click "Close conversation"
The group DM will disappear from your DM list
Note that even if the group is no longer visible, you are still part of it and can re-join at any time, as the next steps will show.
Click on "+" next to "Direct Messages" in the sidebar menu
The group DM will be listed. Click on it to re-join the conversation
Type a new message
The group DM will reappear in your DM list
