One way to achieve this is to maintain an attribute in the assistance class or a node element , called OldLeadSelection , at the Component controller level which stores the value of the lead selection index.

On LeadSelect action handler method, in the first line, read the value of the attribute/element defined above. For the first time a row is lead selected, this value will be initial. After exexcuting the code in the LeadSelection event handler method, store the LeadSelection index value in the attribute defined above. The next time when the LeadSelection event method is called, when the value of this attribute is read in the initial line, it will house the value of the index of the previous LeadSelection.

There could be other ways to achieve this. This is one of the methods.
