New Delhi, Oct 28 (IBNS): Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj has extended her support to an Indian family who has lost their passport in Malaysia.

Sushma Swaraj responded to a tweet posted by Meera Ramesh Patel who said her family members lost their passports at a Malaysian airport and the Indian Embassy was closed as it was weekend on Saturday.

Patel tweeted: "@SushmaSwaraj Mam my family is in malasia airport and lost their passports. Due to weekend Indian Embassy is closed. Please help."

Swaraj was quick in helping her as she posted: "Indian Embassy in Malaysia : This is an emergency case. Pls open the Embassy and help the Indian family. @hcikl."

The matter was later solved.

High Commission of India in Malaysia tweeted: "Family members have been contacted, matter is being resolved."
