Mr. Taylor, a local spokesperson for Republican Network for Unity (R.N.U.), was returned to prison earlier this year after then Secretary of State, Theresa Villiers, revoked his licence.
“Tony Taylor was returned to prison on the word of previous British Secretary of State Theresa Villiers without any evidence being presented,” said Mr. McGuinness.
