Outspoken former Miami Mayor Joe Carollo plans to ask the City Commission to censure and investigate the business dealings of several Venezuelan entrepreneurs as a moral imperative due to rampant unrest in the Latin American country , the Daily Business Review has learned.

Carollo will present a resolution next Thursday that would have the city declare Venezuelans Raul Gorrín, Gustavo Perdomo and Juan Domingo Cordero “persona non grata” in Miami. The three-page resolution notes ties between the entrepreneurs and the Venezuelan government and accuses them of being “indirectly responsible” for human rights violations in their homeland.
