Oct 21, 2011 at 17:29 comment added YCor yes sorry of course... I had the counterexamples in mind. As you point out, we need the extension be split (cf Osin's answer). Btw I think there are much easier examples than Deligne's (which relies on CSP and more) of finite-by-(residually finite) groups that are not residually finite.

Oct 18, 2011 at 9:15 comment added HJRW Yves - Deligne gave a counterexample to this. Or have I misunderstood you? In Andreas' answer, the point is that the extension splits.
