JQL

Need your help on the below JQL scenario -

Jira is used to track incidents and once the incident is confirmed to a second defect it can be moved to a defect issue type. 

In this case, can we query such conditions as in:
Get the list of incidents that were moved to defects

As an work-around you can create a listener which updated a custom field on your issue with the list of values (if any) of the previous issueTypes to which the current issue was migrated from.
