Fair enough...is timo1 a typo or an alias? If a typo, I'd change that to timo and see if that works.

User timo does have execute persmissions, its his own file and
permissions are 740. dir2 is also hos own and therefore no problem.
Due to his primary group shadow dir1 is also no problem. And all this
works as designed without sudo if timo executes the command. Here is
my sudoers entry:
timo1 ALL= (ALL) NOPASSWD: /tmp/dir1/dir2/cmd
It actually works fine if he tries to execute this as root by
running: sudo /tmp/dir1/dir2/cmd
