It's never explicitly said what Chalmers' official title or position is; he mentions to Frank during their first meeting he wants Ross to testify in a Senate subcommittee hearing. This might imply he's a politician, but it isn't certain, since the waiter who tells him Frank has arrived calls him "Mr. Chalmers". Either way, a random politician would not (or should not, legally) have the power to ask a police captain to assign detectives to guard someone. Near the end of the movie, Chalmers appears at the airport and tells Frank, who is waiting to apprehend Ross, that Ross is "still [his] witness". This makes no sense - for someone to agree to testify in criminal proceedings as part of a deal or exchange in their own case, a deal would have to made in good faith with the office of the District Attorney, not some random politician; even if it turns out Chalmers actually was the DA, the deal was never made in good faith, since Renick was hired by Ross to impersonate him so he could escape to Rome; Ross never intended to testify.
