He got flustered when approached by Pakistanis. His security team stopped her and Harrods security took her phone away

What got to him was that people questioned his presence there. Why wasn't he in Pakistan?

So if you question Nawaz Sharif while he is shopping at Harrods, he will get the High Commission to summon you. #outrageous
