The US Marine Corps has discharged the man convicted over the killing of Iraqi civilians in Haditha, a spokesman said. Former Sgt Frank Wuterich, 31, was given a general discharge under honourable conditions and completed his service on Friday, he added.
Wuterich avoided imprisonment after reaching a plea deal, but had earlier faced several counts of manslaughter. Twenty-four people died in the 2005 killings, including women and children, after a roadside bomb killed a Marine.
