Because Locke is one of the best, if not the best, manhunters humanity has.
Blue Team's gone AWOL, and when shit hits the fan with the Guardians and missing colonies, the UNSC needs their best soldiers available to them.

So they send Locke to tell Chief to come back? Without even considering that a soldier as loyal as Chief probably has a good reason for being AWOL? I still have trouble wrapping my head around this. Mostly due to ignorance of post-343 era lore.

Just because the Master Chief has saved humanity doesn't mean he's exempt for military law and regulations. Going AWOL is illegal any way you frame it. However, your line of thinking in that Chief should be allowed to do what's necessary isn't exempt from the lore. In the E3 2015 Halo 5 Demo Buck talks about how the UNSC isn't going to be very happy with Osiris for going after the Chief.

Who is Osiris? A faction in the UNSC or is that Locke's team?

Osiris is a Spartan-IV fireteam. Also, when I said UNSC in my last post, I more so meant the troops and soldiers of the UNSC.

Ahhh okay. I think I understand now.
