Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's team allegedly harassed a woman for taking his pictures, while he was shopping at the high-end luxury retail store Harrods in London.

"An acquaintance on a Whatsapp group found nawaz sharif shopping for Gucci shoes at Harrods. He got flustered when approached by Pakistanis. His security team stopped her and Harrods security took her phone away," tweeted Shoaib Taimur, a London based data scientist.

Taimur, who was tweeting from his verified account, asserted that the woman was also questioned as to why she was present at the store without a 'mehram' (male companion).

The woman was then allegedly taken to the Pakistan High Commission in London.

"So if you question Nawaz Sharif while he is shopping at Harrods, he will get the High Commission to summon you. Nawaz sharif and his goons are scared of a woman," he said.

He also tweeted a picture of Sharif shopping at the store, as proof of his story.
