Two residents of Block 2000, Old Montrose return to court on May 22, 2017 for trial on gun and ammunition possession charges.
Junior Phillips and Jerandi Cromwell appeared before Chief Magistrate Rechanne Browne-Matthias at the Serious Offences Court in Kingstown on Wednesday.

The magistrate granted each defendant composite bail in the sum of EC$12,000 and ordered the men to report to the Central Police Station on Mondays and Thursdays between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
She further ordered that stop notices be placed at all ports of exit and that the men must obtain the permission of her court or the High Court to leave the country.
