A MAN was granted bail in the Supreme Court yesterday in connection with an alleged failed murder bid in early September.

Montre David, 24, represented by Ciji Smith-Curry, appeared before Justice Guillimina Archer-Minns by conference call for determination on his bail for a charge of attempted murder.

According to police reports, on the night of September 8 in Dignity Gardens, David is alleged to have shot Billy Cejour, who although hit multiple times about the body survived his injuries.

In court, the prosecution raised no objections to the defendant’s bail, but asked that strict conditions be attached.

As such, $15,000 bail was granted to David with one or two sureties on condition that he sign in at Carmichael Road Police Station every Wednesday and Saturday by 7pm.

Justice Archer-Minns further warned the accused not to interfere with any witnesses in this case, as failure to comply with any of these conditions would result in his bail being revoked.

David is expected to be served his Voluntary Bill of Indictment for the charge on December 12 before Magistrate Samuel McKinney.
