Retroactive DQ of a PPTQ winner

If I retroactively disqualify (DQ after the event was uploaded) the winner of a PPTQ, will he lose the slot?

If yes, does the next player (the 3rd player based on standings, since the other finalist would also be disqualified - it is a bribery case) get the slot?

Or is the slot part of “You can keep the prizes you already received” policy?

And, btw, how do I DQ him? Can I still enter it into WER somehow, or do I only open investigation?

Thank you for answers.

If you have reasons to DQ after the fact, enter the Investigation in the Judge Center.

More answers forthcoming shortly (but thread locked in the interim).
