Man with 'crossbow at Windsor Castle' said 'I'm here to kill the Queen'

A man who is alleged to have been caught at Windsor Castle with a crossbow said he was there to "kill the Queen", a court was told on Thursday.

Jaswant Singh Chail, 20, appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court this morning charged under Britain's Treason Act. He was arrested while allegedly wearing a hood and a mask and carrying a crossbow on the grounds of Windsor Castle on Christmas Day last year.

A police officer said he looked like someone from a vigilante movie, the Mirror reports.
