The previous conduct of the alleged accused plays a key role in deciding any bail application for anticipatory bail or regular bail in a criminal case. Further, it is a valid criminal defense and a ground for bail as the Courts in India in a given criminal trial or criminal case always look into the antecedents of the alleged accused. Thus, the previous conduct of the alleged accused and his/her antecedents is an important ground for bail in criminal proceedings against the alleged accused.
