There is nothing available to "identify" a thread externally. You can enumerate a process's threads, but all that gives you is a list of thread IDs, nothing else. So you have to "know" the specific thread ID you want ahead of time, ie if the target process gives it to you. Otherwise you are flying blind.

You can use the function CreateToolhelp32Snapshot to create a snapshot of a certain process, and then use the functions Thread32First and Thread32Next to traverse the list of all threads in that snapshot. See the following page from the official Microsoft documentation for an example:
After you have found the thread that you want to terminate, you can then open it with OpenThread and call TerminateThread on it.
However, before you decide to do that, I strongly suggest that you read the documentation of the function TerminateThread (link see above). As stated in the documentation, terminating a thread is a very risky thing to do and is generally not recommended.
