Family, friends and locals will pay their respects to a bus driver who was burnt to death, at a vigil in Brisbane's south.
Manmeet Alisher (29) was killed when an "incendiary device" was thrown at him while he was letting passengers on at Moorooka yesterday morning.
A 48-year-old man, described by police as "compliant" was arrested at the scene and charged with murder and eleven counts of attempted murder late last night.
A vigil for Mr Alisher, an Indian immigrant, has been organised for 5.30pm today (local time) at Luxworth Place, Beaudesert Rd, Moorooka.
Local councillor Steve Griffiths posted a message on his Facebook page, saying the vigil was not only to pay respect to Mr Alisher but to those affected.
Brisbane Lord Mayor Graham Quirk said the driver was a casual worker who had only been employed for a few months.
Mr Quirk said flags would be flown half-mast at council facilities today as a sign of respect.
Police Commissioner Ian Stewart says counter-terrorism authorities are involved in a homicide investigation but he there is nothing so far to suggest terrorism-related links.
He also says there's no indication the attack was racially motivated.
