(1) Conviction of an offense that is directly related to the occupation for which the license is held, pursuant to a determination made under § 47-2853.17(c-1)(2), or a finding by the Mayor that any provision of this part has been violated;

(3) Selling, or offering for sale, adulterated or misbranded drugs or devices.
