Upon appearing at Crawley Magistrates’ Court last week, Maughan pleaded guilty to the unprovoked attack towards Mohamed Mahroof and security guard Mansoor Bahar in June.
He was sentenced to 12 weeks in prison for the racist rant at a branch in Langley Green, West Sussex.
Melanie Wotton, prosecuting, said: “At about 7pm Maughan went into McDonald’s where Mr Mahroof was working as an assistant manager and Mr Bahar as a security guard.
“Maughan leant over the counter and read Mr Mahroof’s name badge before asking him ‘Are you Mohamed?’ and adding ‘Are you a Muslim’?
“Mr Mahroof responded by saying ‘yes’ and when Maughan asked him again he ignored him.
“Maughan then said ‘I’m Christian, you are a Muslim, do you want to chop off my head’? and he made a gesture across his throat to show a beheading.”
