I am lost on this abbreviation... From a court hearing in Switzerland:
"xxx, geboren xxx, vom Kosovo, Beruf unbekannt, AK 09/4083, alias XXX, ohne festen Wohnsitz [...]
It's probably simple, but I have not been able to find (or guess) anything that makes sense in the context.
TIA

It could be "Akte". File no.
