    How did you obtain this phone since you don't know the previous owner?

    If the iPhone is a GSM model, it *may* be possible to simply insert a local carrier's SIM card in it, but you may or may not be able to take full advantage of the device. Of course, I'm guessing. You can also try any carriers that are a subsidiary of Orange Mobile in your area. Other than that, you will have to contact Orange mobile, explain your situation and ask them to unlock it for your OR take a chance at the numerous unlocking sites found all over the web., and no, I do not have any recommendations in that regard.
