India, Oct. 24 -- Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa on Thursday revealed that an unknown person tried to poison him with a chocolate and a jam laced with chemicals at a public event.

He also said that his team had proof that it was not accidental. This is the second alleged attempt on Noboa's life amid the anti-government protest.

The 37-year-old Ecuadoran President told CNN that there were three "highly concentrated" toxic substances in the sweets, which could not have been accidental, as his team had adequate proof to back up, AFP reported.

He also said that it was not possible that the toxic substance was from the product or packaging, adding that it was given to him at a public event.
