Can I say,'I know how to engage with such people.'(context: there were some criminals who are not willing to tell the truth) By using the sentence, does it mean I know how to make them tell the truth or I know how to deal this kind of people?

By using the sentence, does it mean I know how to make them tell the truth Yes, it could imply this kind of threat, depending on context, tone of voice, etc. or I know how to deal this kind of people? This is closer to the meaning of the actual words said.
