Hi guys, sorry for writing here, but I do not know where else to post this question.
I believe I was hacked somehow, but I don't know how. This is not about bitcoin, it's about an another coin. Someone has blocked my coins in the blockchain or stole them, I really don't know, the interesting thing is that in the blockchain explorer, the transaction is there, it is confirmed, the receiving address is correct, but the coins never reached the destination wallet
Your problem is not clear, are you trying to say someone stopped your transaction? To me it seems your transaction has not yet been confirmed can you share the Transaction ID
Nobody can block your coins.

I was threatened with this process of blocking my coins, because I didn't wanted to give access to my computer. The other person knew only my wallet public address. How can someone do this? How is this possible?
Who threatened you, can you shared details?
Anybody can have a public addresses and won't be able to access the funds in your account. However, if you give them your private key, then they can be able to steal your coins

If this can be done, than it might be a real concern to everyone. This means that not even the public addresses are safe? I don't understand. I thought that someone can steal your coins only if they hack the wallet, have the private key, the wallet backup and the password. I never thought that someone can just block coins in the blockchain or sniff a transaction somehow to end up with the coins you send. Is there any possibility to see how the coins, if they still exist, can be unblocked? Is there something that can be done?  
Someone if probably lying to you so that they can make you give them your Private Keys
