<p>&ldquo;The bus on route number A-26 was moving to Electric House around 3.25 pm. When the bus was passing CSMT at 4.25 pm, it ran over a pedestrian. The bus was driven by a BEST undertaking bus driver,&rdquo; a spokesperson of the civic transport body said.</p>
<p>The 60-year-old victim, Hasenar Anduhi, hailed from Kasaragod district in Kerala, PTI reported.&nbsp;</p>
<p>"We have arrested Mohammad Sahil Siddhique. He is resident of Dongri. We are investigating the matter further," Deputy Commissioner of Zone 1, Dr Pravin Munde, said.</p>

<p>After the incident, Mumbai Police registered a case and launched a search for the motorcyclist.</p>
<p>The BEST bus driver, Dnyandev Namdeo Jagdale, was questioned by MRA Marg Police earlier. This was the third such incident involving a BEST bus.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In another incident, a bike was hit by a BEST bus at <strong><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/best-going-through-worst-crisis-has-less-than-3000-buses-on-roads-23443067" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Goregaon</a></strong>.

<p>On Monday night, an out of control electric BEST bus fatally knocked down seven persons and injured 42 others.

He has been booked under sections 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) and 110 (attempt to commit culpable homicide) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and relevant provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act.</p>
