National Freedom Front Leader Wimal Weerawansa and its National Organizer Jayantha Samaraweera today informed court that they failed to appear before court yesterday due to traffic congestion. 

Accordingly, the court revoked arrest warrants on the two UPFA PArliamentarians. 

Arrest warrants were issued on Weerawansa and Samaraweera, yesterday, as they failed to appear before court over a corruption case. 

The court case deals with alleged financial misappropriations that occured at the Ministry of Housing and Construction, when Weerawansa was the Minister. 

Samaraweera, a close ally of Weerawansa, was the Chairman of National Housing Development Authority at the time.
