India's PM 'concerned' over Brisbane bus driver's death

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called Malcolm Turnbull to express his concern over the burning death of Punjabi native Manmeet Alisher. Mr Alisher, 29, was burned alive when an "incendiary device" was thrown at him while he was letting passengers on at Moorooka on Friday morning. The Guardian reported Mr Modi called Mr Turnbull to express the “sense of concern being felt in India” over Mr Alisher's death, particularly in light of the racially-motivated attacks on Indian students in 2009. Mr Alisher's family are still to tell his elderly parents that he has died.
