(in other words your two visits to Europe/Middle East are one to the Europe Zone one to the Middle East Zone)
THEN
"TRAVEL MAY NOT INCLUDE ANY FLOWN OR SURFACE SECTOR BETWEEN EUROPE AND MIDDLE EAST"
IF you want a Europe-Middle East sector in your itinerary, then have your two visits to Europe/Middle East be to/from the same ZONE

For example these are valid:
JNB-xDOH-JFK...HKG-LHR-DOH-NBO (both visits to/from the Middle East zone and with Europe-Middle East sectors)

DAR-LHR-MCT-LHR-HKG...JFK-xLHR-NBO (both visits in the Europe zone and with Europe-Middle East sectors)
I think you are missing this part
Code:
//SEGMENTS BETWEEN EUROPE AND MIDDLE EAST
               ARE NOT PERMITTED IF TRAVEL INCLUDES AFRICA
               AND THE ITINERARY UTILISES THE BACKTRACKING
               PROVISION IN PARAGRAPH 4.E.3.1.3 OR 3.2.3//
which precludes those routings.
