If you are getting a SIM not supported error, then your iPhone is informing you that it is locked to the carrier that it last worked on. If this is the case, then your iPhone will only work on that carrier and not on any other carrier. You will need to get that iPhone carrier unlocked so it can work with other carriers (in Pakistan).

Contact the carrier that the iPhone last worked with. Ask that carrier about the requirements to get your iPhone unlocked. Only that carrier can unlock that iPhone. Once it is unlocked then you can use the iPhone in Pakistan with other carrier(s).
