A number of investigations related to nearly 60 charges of murder without legal basis being waged against British troops in Iraq have been revoked, the Ministry of Defence (MoD).
Iraq Historic Allegations Team (Ihat) decided not to pursue 57 cases, the MoD said.
Advanced cases have halted military prosecutor authorities.
This information is obtained after Prime Minister David Cameron urged efforts "to overcome" what he describes as a statement of law "false" against British troops returning after a stint abroad.
The ministers asked to make a plan to cope with such statements, including by limiting the setting "no win, no pay", said Cameron.
The lawyers said that everyone must obey the law and many cases of violation has been proven.
Iraq Historic Allegations Team was formed to review and investigate allegations of violations of Iraqi civilians being waged against members of the British military in Iraq from 2003 until July 2009.
They recorded more than 1,300 allegations were being investigated, ranging from murder to petty crime - about 280 of which are murder without legal basis.
