Narrative:
I was working the controller in charge position, in charge of the area at my center. The controller at a radar position coordination a descent to 5000 ft with (who he thought was) ind approach controllers. But, he was actually talking to the huf approach controllers, which is the adjacent approach control facility. Huf approach approved the descent, ind did not. The aircraft was descended into ind approach airspace without prior coordination.

Narrative: I WAS WORKING THE CIC POS, IN CHARGE OF THE AREA AT MY CTR. THE CTLR AT A RADAR POS COORD A DSCNT TO 5000 FT WITH (WHO HE THOUGHT WAS) IND APCH CTLRS. BUT, HE WAS ACTUALLY TALKING TO THE HUF APCH CTLRS, WHICH IS THE ADJACENT APCH CTL FACILITY. HUF APCH APPROVED THE DSCNT, IND DID NOT. THE ACFT WAS DSNDED INTO IND APCH AIRSPACE WITHOUT PRIOR COORD.
