Meet Noshir Gowadia Wife

Noshir Gowadia is married to his wife, Cheryl. They reside at their home in Haiku. When the FBI went to search his home on October 13 back in 2005, his wife declined to comment. Probably she didn’t believe what his husband was accused of. 

Gowadia and his spouse own an engineering and consulting company. When he was arrested the agent threaten him that if he did not cooperate they would arrest his wife, his adult son, and his adult daughter.

One of the agents then laughed and stated that of course his wife and kids would be found innocent in a year or two, ‘but in the meantime, their lives will be destroyed.’ It was a hard time for Gowadia.
