How to deal with telephone threats?
Whether threatening to make a phone call is a crime of intimidation needs to be determined according to the specific circumstances. There is no crime of intimidation in China's criminal law, but it is stipulated in the crime of provoking trouble that intimidating others constitutes a crime. Threatening others by telephone, which constitutes a crime, shall be punished according to the crime of stirring up trouble; If it does not constitute a crime, it shall be punished in accordance with the relevant provisions on public security management.
