Moving the contents in the cell array

data = {'abc' , 'def' , 'ghi'}
I have a cell array named data. Now i need to move the contents to another index in the same array and delete the older contents.
for example: data([4 5 6]) = data
This will give the result as data = {'abc' , 'def' , 'ghi', 'abc' , 'def' , 'ghi'}. Instead of this i just need to move the contents based on the index number and empty the contents in the older position.
Answer should be like this,
data = {[],[],[],'abc' , 'def' , 'ghi'}
How can i do it?
Thanks a lot

how if we have a cell that contains binary image or another image. how can we move that image that was stored o a new variable? so that we can show it using imshow().

new_variable = name_of_cell{row_index, column_index};
imshow(new_variable)
but note that imshow() would be happy with
imshow( name_of_cell{row_index, column_index} );
