A man threatened to kill Queen Elizabeth in a chilling video shared with friends.
The man wore a mask and held a crossbow in the video in which he threatened to “assassinate the Queen”.
In the video clip, the figure, wearing a white mask, holds the shiny black weapon and addresses the camera with a distorted voice while wearing a hoodie.
He says: “I’m sorry. I’m sorry for what I’ve done and what I will do. I will attempt to assassinate Elizabeth, Queen of the Royal Family.”
He adds: “This is revenge for those who have died in the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
“It is also revenge for those who have been killed, humiliated and discriminated on because of their race.
“I’m an Indian Sikh, a Sith. My name was Jaswant Singh Chail, my name is Darth Jones.”
The man in the mask is believed to be 19-year-old Jaswant Singh Chail.
The video was sent to friends from 19-year-old Chail’s Snapchat account 24 minutes before armed officers pounced on him on Christmas Day morning.
Armed police arrested him at Windsor Castle on Christmas Day.
He has been sectioned under the Mental Health Act.
He was 500 metres from the Queen’s private apartments, inside the castle grounds.
Chail, known as Jas, was arrested while allegedly armed with a crossbow after scaling a spiked fence with a rope ladder.
Police confirmed they were assessing the video — which featured a framed picture of obscure Star Wars bad guy Darth Malgus on a wall behind the masked man.
The suspect added that he did not expect to survive the attack on the Queen.
In a message sent on Snapchat alongside the video, the teen wrote: “I’m sorry to all of those who I have wronged or lied to.
“If you have received this then my death is near. Please share this with whoever and if possible get it to the news if they’re interested.”
The pre-recorded video was posted at 8.06am on Christmas Day.
Armed police nabbed the 19-year-old intruder at 8.30am after he triggered alarms and was spotted on CCTV.
It was understood the Met has taken on the investigation because the suspect was arrested within the grounds and also because of the serious nature of the break-in.
The teenager was sectioned under the Mental Health Act after doctors pronounced him unfit to be dealt with over the break-in.
