Qld bus driver death 'shocking': minister

Queensland's Transport Minister Stirling Hinchliffe says he would be glad to meet with the family of slain Brisbane bus driver Manmeet Alisher after his "shocking" death.

Mr Alisher, 29, was burned alive when he was set alight while he was letting passengers on at Moorooka on Friday morning.

His brother, Amit, arrived at Brisbane Airport on a flight from India on Sunday morning and was given an emotional welcome from members of the city's Punjabi community.

"I would be happy to meet with any of the family of Manmeet Alisher," Mr Hinchliffe said on the Gold Coast.

"This is a very shocking incident that has genuinely rocked the public transport world."

Mr Hinchliffe said he had met with many of Manmeet's colleagues from the Sherwood and Toowoong bus depots and they were still in shock.

Mr Hinchliffe declined to comment on whether the incident was racially-motivated, but called for all bus drivers to be shown respect.

"The advice that I have been receiving is that all of our public transport workers, including our bus drivers, should not feel that this is a matter that's targeted at them in particular," he said.

"I think it's really timely that we all treat, in whatever circumstances, frontline public transport workers like our bus drivers with great respect."

A current review of bus driver safety will include the incident.

Queensland Police Commissioner Ian Stewart said there was nothing to suggest the attack was racially motivated.

Anthony O'Donohue, 48, has been charged with murder, arson and 11 counts of attempted murder, and will remain in custody until his case returns to court in late November.
