You may specify the principals parameter like so:

-u BOT_EMAIL_ADDRESS:BOT_API_KEY \
--data-urlencode 'subscriptions=["Verona", "Denmark"]' \
--data-urlencode 'principals=["ZOE@zulip.com"]'
Note: Unsubscribing another user from a stream requires
administrative privileges.
Parameters
subscriptions (string)[] required
Example: ["Verona", "Denmark"]
A list of stream names to unsubscribe from. This parameter is called
streams in our Python API.
principals (string | integer)[] optional
Example: ["ZOE@zulip.com"]
A list of user ids (preferred) or Zulip display email
addresses of the users to be subscribed to or unsubscribed
from the streams specified in the subscriptions parameter. If
not provided, then the requesting user/bot is subscribed.
Changes: The integer format is new in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 9).
Return values
-
not_removed: (string)[] A list of the names of streams that the user is already unsubscribed
from, and hence doesn't need to be unsubscribed.
-
removed: (string)[] A list of the names of streams which were unsubscribed from as a result
of the query.
