    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 907/907/M=09/1436) The mahram of the Chachi such as her father, son, brother, grandson, nephew etc they can meet her. You are not her mahram so you shall observe purdah from her likewise her cousin brothers shall also observe purdah from her. If proper purdah can be observed in walking on the roof then she may walk.
