It questions whether such a union is permissible, including the possibility of a court marriage. The consensus leans towards it being a prohibited relationship due to sapinda relations, particularly on the paternal side, with a distinction made for the maternal side.

Can A person marry to her grandfather's brother's daughter's daughter? Maybe as his paternal grandfather's brother's daughter is a relative called aunty ' daughter is called a sister-in-law and hence he may marry his paternal grandfather's brother's daughter's daughter. If the maternal side the relation is prohibited relationship.
