An NIA team conducting a raid in a PFI-related case had to wait outside the residence of a man, who was earlier accused in the 7/11 Mumbai train blasts case, in suburban Vikhroli on Wednesday as he did not open the door for more than six hours, an official said.

But Abdul Wahid Shaikh did not open the door for more than six hours and kept the officials waiting outside," the official said.
