“Against policy” means he had no legal authority to use a chokehold. Therefore it was an illegal assault.

There is no law in the Penal Code outlawing the use of a choke-hold. Policy is not law.
Can be fired for using it, can lose legal protections for the act of using it, but the specific act is not in-itself illegal.
