I have one tmux session running and the following works for me:
(run-shell-command "tmux select-window -t CONTROL")

Not sure, how multiple tmux sessions will be handled.

(window-send-string "tmux select-window -t CONTROL") will only work when
you are in a shell window.

Otherwise you need to send Control-B : somehow to enter the tmux command mode.
