The U.S. has drafted a list of about 60 Venezuelan government officials and family members who could be sanctioned in the first punitive measures following the South American country's disputed presidential election in July, two people close to the matter said, APA reports citing Reuters.

The proposed list singles out officials from Venezuela's National Electoral Council (CNE), the Supreme Court and the counterintelligence police who have been involved in political chaos, the people said.

The U.S. Treasury Department submitted the draft sanctions list in recent days to the State Department, which has the final say on who will be sanctioned, and the number could change, the people said.

The sanctions would impose travel bans on targeted officials and family members, and would prohibit U.S. entities from doing business with them.
