Can it be done by force?

I mean a person's faith. I just came across some cases involving a few individuals who wanted to come out of one faith into another. unfortunately they were told there is no such provision for them to choose another faith again! How shocking!I mean I thought that we are living in a long ago civilised world, and yet this kind of thing still exist, before our very eyes! In a documentary, this Hindu couple of twenty-one years with five teenager children as prove of their union(should any party doubted their marriage status)were force to be separated and pronounced their marriage null. The wife formally from Muslim background but all this while not a practising one was suddenly taken away to a religious rehab centre and deprived of her children's custody. I mean dealing with human beings and not robots, do you think this strategy fair? Forcing someone to embrace a certain religion just because he/she originated from a family of such. Is it just to deprive someone of the right to choose a faith he/she wishes to based upon? May be you can enlighten us, the human race.

i feel faith is something that is within each individual, its our belief, or we believe that, it can differ from person to person, even within the family, the husband and wife too will have different faith, no one can force a faith on another human, it just not possible, because its within ourselves.
