well this issue was easily resolved by "disallowing" the client to abort
the download using the directive:
     proxy_ignore_client_abort off;
on nginx.

and also you must understand that the caching is being done by "nginx"
and not "squid" so you must apply some cache storage management
mechanism that can erase youtube cached files.
