" However, there are no known cases in recent times in which someone charged with apostasy in these countries has been put to death."

I am assuming that the type of muslim fascists who would force a conversion at gunpoint would also be the type of muslim fascists who would declare a fatwa on someone for apostasy.

From what I've found ... any iman, who can simply be a prayer leader, can issue any fatwa they choose ... and any Muslim can choose to believe or not to believe in the authority for that iman and whatever fatwas they issue.
