Answer

The police investigators of a crime use the term "person of interest" when they feel not enough evidence exists for the person to be named an actual suspect. We might say the expression is a euphemism. The expression "you'd not have any contact with him until this situation is behind us" is the "it" that the speaker, the police officer, would prefer. As Jura said, "it" is not necessary. 你现在不是一宗谋杀案的嫌犯，但是不要出城。

Answer

person of interest= a suspect in the murder case
Yes there should be "it", but this sentence can be understood without " it".
