The abduction of Anne Sluti is the basis for a new made-for-TV movie that will air next month on Lifetime.

Sluti was 17 when she was taken from a parking lot at a Kearney shopping mall on April 6, 2001.

Anthony Steven Wright, also known as Tony Zappa, was convicted of the kidnapping.

Wright held Sluti captive for six days before he surrendered after a 10-hour police standoff at a remote cabin near Rollins, Mont.

Sluti testified at Wright's trial that she was bound with duct tape and chains and repeatedly raped during the ordeal.

Wright is serving a life sentence.

"Taken in Broad Daylight" is scheduled to air Feb. 15.

Sluti's story has appeared on NBC's "Dateline," on Court TV and printed in a supermarket tabloid.
