Well, this isn't a proper police, just a militia in a city fillled with criminals. In this situations, they can't refuse such individual. So yes, he isn't a detective from an official police force, but more an useful addon to a staff who need individuals with such talent on the matter, not counting the knowledge on the subject. And "detective" is only a title, as some paramilitar or mercenaries adopt military ranks without the officiality behind it.
