A.Hi,
As per section 506 of the IPC , Death threat is an offence and punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to seven years. File a FIR with proof of texts messages you already have.

Both cities have jurisdiction to entertain criminal complaint. Approach higher police officer and the alleged acts will be covered both under cyber law and IPC.

A.File a case in the place wherever you stay. It does not matter what is written on your Aadhar card. Yes it is a cyber case and cyber crime cell of Lal Bazaar will take care of this once the complaint is lodged.
