It's unlawful to fire an employee without valid reasons and proofs to support the allegations. It's against standard ethics and professionalism at work and business. The said employee will lose his or her morale.
In my country, the sacking of employees is taken as crime if being done in the incorrect way. The ministry of labor in my country had set it's rules and regulations on how employers should follow when doing the same.
If it was stated in the employment contract that the company withholds the right to terminate the employment of the staff at anytime without notice, then it is illegal. If it is not clearly stated, it is illegal and the staff can go to court.

You don't terminate the employment of a staff without a tangible reason that you could defend in court. You might end up paying lots of damages.
