Man Arrested Tried To Killed The Queen With Crossbow

A British-Sikh man arrested with a crossbow at Queen Elizabeth's Windsor Castle home on Christmas Day last year said "I am here to kill the Queen," a British court was told on Wednesday.

The young man was revealed as Jaswant Singh Chail, 20, who was wearing a hood and mask when he was broken into the royal residence in the early hours of Christmas Day last year with a loaded crossbow on the grounds.

On Wednesday, Chail appeared at the hearing via video link from the high-security Broadmoor psychiatric hospital to answer charges of making threats to kill and possession of an offensive weapon. He’s also been charged with an offence under England’s Treason Act, specifically “discharging or aiming firearms, or throwing or using any offensive matter or weapon, with intent to injure or alarm Her Majesty.”
