Are you sure he has that authority, outside the Diocese of Rome? I'm not up on canon law to that extent.

In imitation of Christ, I think maybe the Holy Father is waiting for them to recognize the sin and accuse themselves. Those whom Jesus forgave brought their sins to Him. He did not need to condemn them first.
