How about:
fuser -k /dev/pts/12
Will kill all processes on that tty.
You can also kill all processes owned by that user with something like:
ps -ef | awk '$1 == "username" { print $2 }' | xargs kill -9

Subject: log-out a user - How To
Hi,
I have an idle user log in from pts/12. I think it's an artifact because the
user was using vncviewer, and then when I killed the vncserver, the login is
still there. I want to delete the user (using userdel) from my system but I
can't because it says the user is login.
How do I log him out from that session? Of course, I have a root access.
Thanks.
