I successfully reproduced your issue by trying to execute a plugin 
located inside /root through NRPE, location which is obviously chmod to 700:

nagios3:~# stat --format="%a %U:%G" /root
700 root:root
nagios3:~# stat --format="%a %U:%G" /root/check_users
755 root:root

command[check_root]=/root/check_users -w 5 -c 10

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_root
NRPE: Unable to read output

You have to move your plugin outside your home directory like I 
explained previously otherwise NRPE won't be able to access/execute it 
due to chmod restriction.
