15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.”

He committed no sins against me, therefore I cannot forgive him. Also, I didn't hear him ask to be forgiven, nor has he repented, to my knowledge.

“He committed no sins against me, therefore I cannot forgive him”

Well, he committed sins against all of society, but more importantly against God. An extension of forgiving people is beseeching God to forgive others who sinned against Him. Pick any prophet to find examples of that.

“Also, I didn’t hear him ask to be forgiven, nor has he repented, to my knowledge.”

Nobody asked Christ for forgiveness when they were tormenting Him, but He still asked the Father to forgive them.
