If the iPad is activation locked, the only way to get it released is to sign into the original Apple ID that it is attached to and have it removed. If you cannot get into the old Apple ID, then I’m afraid that is nothing you will be able to do to get past this. You can try to get in touch with Apple to get the account fixed so you can log into it, but that is going to take getting in touch with Apple and seeing what they can do for you.
