[Gmsh] intersecting faces...

Hello all
I have an STL model that I created in MeshLAB. MeshLAB can't find any self-intersecting faces in the 2D surface.
I then Merge the STL file into a GEO file and try to create a 3D mesh by selecting the surface and adding a volume.
However, the 3D meshing algorithm complains about self-intersecting faces. These must be somewhere in the interior of the body, right? So, what can I do to solve this problem?
Attached are my STL and GEO files.
All the best,
Einat
