League-of-legends – If you only stun/snare/fear/(any other cc) an enethe, but gets killed by a tower, does it count as a kill

league-of-legends

Let's say for example:

You're Fiddlesticks and you didn't harm the enemy champion for a while. Then you just Terrify (using Q, fearing him without dealing any damage) the enemy champion (which has 86 hp). The feared one walks right inside the tower range, then the tower shoots him once so the enemy dies.

Does this count as a kill or it's just an execution?

Though this was not always the case, CC effects and damage dealt to (but not enough to break) a shield do count for Kill / Assist credit.
