  14. Revocation, suspension and amendment of licenses
  (1) If the licensing officer is satisfied, either on a reference
  
  made to him in this behalf or otherwise, that-

  been obtained by misrepresentation or suppression of any material fact, or

  cause, failed to comply with the conditions subject to which the license has
  
  been granted or has contravened any of the provisions of this Act or the rules
  
  made thereunder, then without prejudice to any other penalty to which the
  
  holder of the license may be liable under this Act, the licensing officer may,
  
  after giving the holder of the license an opportunity of showing cause, revoke
  
  or suspend the license or forfeit the sum, if any, or any portion thereof
  
  deposited as security for the due performance of the conditions subject to
  
  which the license has been granted.
