Android -Как удалить представление в макете (Представление добавляется динамически)

Я получаю сообщение об ошибке -force close -, когда пытаюсь удалить представление в RelativeLayout (dynamic ).

добавить представление:(макет относительный макет, расширенный вид Sunanim)

SunAnim rotateImg = new SunAnim(this);  
rotateImg.setTag("imgsun");
layout.addView(rotateImg);

удалить вид :(CloudAnim <=> SunAnim)

class CountDownRunner implements Runnable{
        // @Override
        public void run() {
                while(!Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()){
                    try {

                        Thread.sleep(1000);
                        delAnim ++;
                        SunAnim rotateImg = (SunAnim)layout.findViewWithTag("imgsun");
                        CloundAnim cl = (CloundAnim)layout.findViewWithTag("imgcl");
                        if (rotateImg != null && delAnim == 15) {
                            ((RelativeLayout)rotateImg.getParent()).removeView(rotateImg);   
                            layout.invalidate();
                            delAnim = 0;
                            Log.d("Rotate","Deleted");
                        }
                        if (cl != null && delAnim == 15) {
                            ((RelativeLayout)cl.getParent()).removeView(cl); 
                            layout.invalidate();
                            delAnim = 0;
                            Log.d("CL","Deleted");
                        }

                    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                            Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
                    }catch(Exception e){
                    }
                }
        }
    }

и, наконец, -Logcat T _T:

Должен ли я это исправить?
