Does the contract stipulates he has to complete his term ? then he is bound to I guess.

Why doesn't he take exit-re-entry and just do transfer sponsorship...apparently the nitaqat system it can be done easily

Many employers do that. They don't wan't your friend to come back to KSA to work for anyone else. This is because an automatic ban applies when someone goes out on an exit re-entry and doesn't come back before the ERE visa expiry.

The only possible way is to come back to KSA during validity of the ERE visa and try to get sponsorship transfer from your employer. It's risky though as the employer may not agree.

Dear Friend!

If your friend mentioned clearly in his resignation letter "5 months before his contractual period end" that he request to resign and final exit visa, so what happens now is officially illegal, unfortunately the employer didn't give your friend any choice expect submit a case in the labor office.

Legally after giving the minimum notice period which is "one month" before the contract end, the employer dose not have the right to issue Exit re-entry visa.

I think your friend's employer did this to force your friend to come back to him or to eliminate any chance for your friend to come back with a new visa.
