Venezuela tax agency closes fast food chain Arturo's temporarily

Economy  

Venezuela's Customs and Tax Administration Service (Seniat) shut by three days the 62 restaurants of Venezuelan fast food chain Arturo's, due to inconsistencies in the ledger of the company. 

The measure was preceded by the closure last week of 115 restaurants of fast food giant McDonald's, the largest in the world, for inconsistencies found in the sales and purchases records, DPA reported. 

Venezuela's tax agency said it ordered the closure for three days of the fast food chain Pollos Arturo's for not fulfilling their formal tax duties, specifically in purchase records.

In urging the Bolivarian Armed Forces to prepare for war, he said that a US raid on Venezuela through Colombia would trigger and spread over the region "the 100-year war."
