Murder accused Andrene Mignott and Nadine Johnson were today each granted $500,000 bail with sureties when they appeared in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court.
They are before the court for the killing of Kemar Elliott, who was of Waltham Park Road, St Andrew address.
The women, who are from Waltham Park Road, are being represented by attorneys-at-law Patrick Peterkin and Ayisha Robb.
Bail was opposed by the Crown on the grounds that the two accused were flight risks and there could also be possible interference with witnesses.
The attorneys, in applying for bail, argued that the women are not flight risks because they had surrendered to the police after the incident.
They also argued that the women are willing to relocate.
In granting bail, the court ordered them to relocate and to report to the nearest police station on Mondays and Thursdays.
The case is set for mention on September 6 as the post mortem report is not ready.
