Answer:

The answer is c "It is a crime even if the extortion message is sent either unwillingly or without the knowledge of the sender."

Explanation:

Extortion, in most countries, means obtaining something by coercion or threat. Thus, if a message is sent through a mobile phone of someone with the person's knowledge or not, then an act of extortion may have been established. The onus is on the owner of the phone to prove innocence of sending such message in the first place while he may be charged with extortion as the case is established.

Which of the following is NOT a graduated sanction step?
dlinn [17]

I can try my best here.

The following that is a sanction: Four main “structured decision-making” tools are available for improving juvenile justice system programming in a graduated-sanctions framework: risk assessment, needs/strengths assessment, a disposition matrix

The following that is not a sanction: Any type of sanction is put by the other countries in the individual country is a tool for putting economic pressure on the neighbouring country. It is one of the methods of foreign policy and can be beneficial in the regulation of trading internationally and dealing with political matters.  

Hopefully this helped and if it did not then I'm sorry...
