This will be more difficult, the Home Office UK/Visas are likely to maintain that only direct family members can be included in this type of 'surinder sigh' application, a brother is not a direct family member. However, I do recall one success at appeal in the Upper-tribunal for such a case, so if you are determined and prepared to appeal, there may be a chance for success, but far from straightforward.
