Maybe you need to increase calories to keep losing... Post the diet history (starting calories, caloric reduction, what period of time, macronutrient ratio, etc).

He's already below maintenance...that would probably just get rid of muscle if my understanding is correct.

I started out at around 4600 calories when I finished bulking, I reduced it about 10 percent a week or so until I reached around 2800. Then I started reducing 10 percent every two weeks until I reached around 1800 calories. Thats where I am now and have been for about a month or so. This has been going on since March.
