59. In 1978 only half the women granted child support by a court received the amount awarded; at least as much as a million and more others had not any support agreements whatsoever. (A) at least as much as a million and more others had not any (B) at least as much as more than a million others had no (C) more than a million others had not any (D) more than a million others had no (E) there was at least a million or more others without any

In this question, I want to address that whether "granted" is a verb or a past participle. I am confused by the basic structure of this sentence? Thank you for help!!

granted 过去分词后置定语修饰women （the court granted the women child support)

谓语是received

See. Thanks!
